I have the charset
file {
    path => "C:/Program Files (x86)/test.log"
    type => "orion"
    codec => multiline {
      pattern => "^%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601}"
      negate => true
      what => "previous"
      charset => "UTF-8"
    }
    start_position => "beginning"
  }

Why is it still complaining about the charset?

2

It is expecting to receive UTF-8 characters, and it is complaining because at least one character in the text it read is not a valid UTF-8 character.

3

How to get this solved?

4

Change the charset option to whatever encoding the text being consumed is actually using. It is not UTF-8.

Thanks @Badger for your help.
