Getting _dateparsefailure error

[niudaye123]

Hi,
I am getting _dateparsefailure in tags, Not sure why it is. I checked the date match format and did not see any issue though, Any idea what's the issue? thanks!

Here is the original message:

The following are part of the script:

filter {
  # NOTE: The frontend logstash servers set the type of incoming messages.
  if [type] == "syslog-cisco" {
    # The switches are sending the same message to all syslog servers for redundancy, this allows us to
    ## only store the message in elasticsearch once by generating a hash of the message and using that as
    ## the document_id.
    fingerprint {
      source              => [ "message" ]
      method              => "SHA1"
      key                 => "Some super secret passphrase for uniqueness."

    }

    # Parse the log entry into sections.  Cisco doesn't use a consistent log format, unfortunately.
