Hello everyone. Can someone tell me how to set up laravel logs in filebeat (without logstash).

 ![Slack%20-%20TC%20Team%202019-02-28%2010-17-21](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/8/98e50d34f3195e0e0cbe4b90398576cfa168eee8.png)

In the picture i showed with arrows that i want the log to break: date to timestamp field, type in env field, error-type to severity field. And everything else in the message field.

But, whatever petterns i use, i get the whole error entirely in the message field:  
[https://take.ms/S73uI](https://take.ms/S73uI)

My filebeat.yml conf:

filebeat.inputs:

- type: log  
enabled: true  
paths:
  - /var/www/html/lara/storage/logs/\*.log  
multiline.pattern: "%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601}%{GREEDYDATA}"  
multiline.negate: true  
multiline.match: after

@belledota

Which version of filebeat you are using?

There is an example configuration in our documentation on multiline. I think this one fits exactly your use case: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/master/\_examples\_of\_multiline\_configuration.html#\_timestamps](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/master/_examples_of_multiline_configuration.html#_timestamps)

Hi. I'm using filebeat-6.6.0

</div>

I'm change my filebeat.yml to:

multiline.pattern: '[%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:timestamp}] %{WORD:env}.%{LOGLEVEL:severity}: %{GREEDYDATA:message}'  
multiline.negate: true  
multiline.match: after  
multiline.flush\_pattern: '"}'

But, result is the same as the my first post.

The documentation contains the following configuration:

```auto
multiline.pattern: '^\[[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}'
multiline.negate: true
multiline.match: after

```

You need to paste these three lines into your configuration.  
The pattern of multiline is a regex pattern, not grok.

If you need further processing, you either need to use Ingest pipelines or Logstash instead of Filebeat.
