Hi,

I have enabled to the postgres module pointing to my log files. When i start filebeat i can see that is picks up the logs and processes them, but it does not seem to be populating the postgresql fields in the event

Config

- module: postgresql

Event:

What is your Postgresql version? Do you have custom a log format?  
Could you share a few example input logs which cannot be parsed correctly?
