Hello to everyone, I have a problem with grok parsing.  
trying to parse fiend log.file.path, I want to put out domain name for example:  
I Have path /var/www/httpd-logs/mydomain.net.access.log  
I'm using %{GREEDYDATA}/%{GREEDYDATA:domain}.access.log,  
In Grok debbug it is work but when starting logstash and look on elasticsearch, it is not working.  
please help resolve this problem.

In logstash you refer to a path field inside a file object inside a log object using [log][file][path], not log.file.path.
