#logstash

hello, i'm running into various issues with logstash

I have a specific question at the moment around using the split filter

actually, before I go there.... logstash keeps looking for the filter.rb files under an incorrect location

any idea why that happens ?

500 users and nobody chatting here? :(

Perhaps you should consider time zones as well as asking a question no-one can answer.

"My car doesn't work, why?"

Title: How To Ask Questions The Smart Way (at www.catb.org)

I'm looking to engage with someone first before I can describe the complete problem.

That's not how it works.

i see

You describe your issue as completely as possible, and then someone who might know might answer.

I have multiple issues and if I list all those, most likely nobody will answer

hmm ok

If I were to "engage" with you, it'd turn out I didn't know and we have both wasted our time.

that's true

In Europe, today is Sunday and it's early morning.

makes sense, I'll post the complete problem

US time zones are night time.

most people are hacking at this time here

This channel is most active during US working hours.

i see

i guess it's the weekend so probably most people aren't coding

If it's complex, break it down. If you need to keep context, post to a mailing list or the logstash forum.

ok... I thought IRC would have been real time

i was going to post it there ... maybe i'll paste the link here

thanks @bjorn__ for enlightening me
