I am setting up a new prospector for my clickhouse logs, but am seeing this error below. What does it mean?:

{"log.level":"debug","@timestamp":"2024-02-20T22:46:51.999Z","log.logger":"input.filestream","log.origin":{"file.name":"filestream/prospector.go","file.line":177},"message":"A new file /clickhouse/logs/clickhouse-server-2024-02-20-21:53:28.err.log has been found","service.name":"filebeat","id":"clickhouse","prospector":"file_prospector","operation":"create","source_name":"native::101038678-64768","os_id":"101038678-64768","new_path":"/clickhouse/logs/clickhouse-server-2024-02-20-21:53:28.err.log","ecs.version":"1.6.0"}

My prospector file:

[root@aln-nbadev4 filebeat]# cat prospector-clickhouse.yml

# Clickhouse

  id: clickhouse

  fields_under_root: true

  tags: ['clickhouse']

I've got ten other prospectors and they are working just fine. I'm using Elasticsearch and Filebeat 8.8.2.

Hi @silentfilm

syntax / yml parsing error

Think you are missing the or

or :wink: perhaps this which is simpler and seems to be read / run.

The field can be a string or an array of strings. The condition accepts only a string value.

  processors:
    - drop_event:
        when:
          contains:
            message: ["<Debug>", "<Trace>"]
