We have log files with different formats (CSV and XML) but with the same file extension. I hoped that the parser mappings will be processed top down switching to the next parser (for the current file extension) if the current one could not parse the file. But it seems like this is not done.

Is there any way to deal with that?

The default parser lookup behaviour is to apply the first matching parser configuration, but this can be changed by using the Heuristic Strategy instead.  The heuristic strategy will use multiple parsers to parse a log file and then apply the best one.

Hope that helps,

Perfect! Just what I was looking for. Th
