hi there

I am using logstash as a tool to store files on elasticsearch

the is no manipulation on the file content (message)

every day logstash splits a small number of files at an unexpected line

the rest of the files are being handled successfully

at the moment, I cannot share the conf file

has anyone encountered this issue?
