Hi everyone,

having problem with setting up .yml config file and specificaly processors:dissect.

i have root filebeat.yml file pointing to several config files. This seems to work, in filebeat log i can see that config files are loaded.

But than having problem with setting up these config files

#component-config.yml

- type: log
  paths:
    - D:\my\path\to\*\*\component\*\*.log
  processors:
    - dissect:
        tokenizer: "%{1}\\%{2}\\%{3}\\%{4}\\%{env}\\%{region}\\%{component}\\%{5}\\%{logname}.log"
        field: "source"
    - drop_fields:
        fields: [1,2,3,4,5]

  fields:
    app: "my_app"
    es_id: "some_id"
    es_ver: "some_ver"
    correlation_id: "some_c_id"
    type: "beats"
    application: "some_application"
    component: "some_component"
  fields_under_root: true
  multiline.pattern: '^20'
  multiline.negate: true
  multiline.match: after

ERROR : Exiting: the processor dissect doesn't exist

Could you please share any information about the filebeat version you're using? What is the exact error you observed?

Version is 6.3.2 and error is as i mentioned above : ERROR : Exiting: the processor dissect doesn't exist , this is the only error i can see in a filebeat.log. When i delete the processors& dissect part i can see that logs are shipped without a problem, but i really need that {env} {region} from path.
