hi, I am new pin this forum and i want to know how it’s possible to send apache logs (error and access) to graylog. thx for support

You can read the Apache httpd log files using any log shipper which supports a format compatible with Graylog, such as Filebeat or NXLOG. Also make sure to check the documentation about the Graylog Collector Sidecar at http://docs.graylog.org/en/2.3/pages/collector_sidecar.html .

@Jochen , I’ve never found a use case for the Graylog Collector. It must be the generic wiki article that doesn’t do a good job at explaining why you would even care to use it.

@TJgrayD Also, it appears I can only have one output “host” setting per filebeat.yml - If I configure one beat collector to send to server1:5044, and another to send to server2:5044, my generated filebeat config only shows server2:5044. Just to have it said - this is a limitation of filebeat and…
