I would like to modify the IIS logs for further transfer to the destination. Now I am parsing the IIS log with the xm_csv module, as in the template. UndefValue is disabled to not get empty.
How can I interact with parsed data from w3c_parser?
For example, I want to combine into a variable $request = '"' $cs-method ' ' $cs-uri-stem ' ' $cs-version '"'; such a value, but I get an error. When I try to write a field from w3c_parser to $raw_event, I also get an error. Any other data is added without error.
For example $raw_event = $c-ip
-- error
$raw_event = $EventTime ' ' $http_host
-- no error
Example error, logs and config file below

let's start with NXLog language in the conf files. Dashes in explicit format are not allowed - you can check: https://nxlog.co/docs/nxlog-ce/nxlog-reference-manual.html#lang_fields
Hence, one needs to apply curly braces to reach the goal ({}
). If I understand your issue correctly, this may help with most of your issues.
