Grok Extractor with pipes and Spaces

i’m trying to Create a new grok extractor for the following message

03:22:40.734|User                           |   192.168.1.1|      127.0.0.1|(678): Error message goes here
%{TIME:UTC-TIME}\|%{USER:UserName}%{SPACE}\|%{SPACE}%{IP:SourceIP}\|%{SPACE}%{IP:GWIP}\|\(%{BASE10NUM:ErrorNumber}\): %{GREEDYDATA:ErrorMessage}

this works in GROK debugger but when i put it in graylog i get the following error: Check parameters

I have found where it doesn’t like it, between SourceIP} and |. When i remove everything after SourceIP it works. I put in GREEDYDATA and get
GREEDYDATA
| 127.0.0.1|(678): Error message goes here.

Do all referenced Grok patterns exist in your Graylog cluster? Check at System/Grok patterns.
Anything in the logs of your Graylog nodes?
:arrow_right: http://docs.graylog.org/en/2.4/pages/configuration/file_location.html

all grok patterns exist. Running 2.4.3

I can’t get to the logs in the server.

Omnibus Package version 2.4.0-rc.2 -
/var/log/graylog/server/

I get access denied when using ubuntu username in the cli

Which one are you running?

You have to be root to access these files. You can use sudo to get root privileges as “ubuntu” user.

sorry i was in the middle of upgrading graylog to the latest. So currently running 2.4.3

Grok Debugger Check

Please create a bug report at https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-server/issues and include the complete logs of your Graylog node(s), the failing Grok pattern, one or more example messages, and a content pack of all Grok patterns in your Graylog cluster (System/Content Packs/Create a content pack) or alternatively a dump of the “grok_patterns” collection in MongoDB.
