Simple GROK pattern for JAVA

Question

Its weird that GROK pattern is not parsing the string :

org.dozer.config.GlobalSettings.loadGlobalSettings

%{JAVACLASS:class}\.%{JAVAMETHOD:method}

I see compile error. Please suggest.

Try this:

%{GREEDYDATA:class}.%{WORD:method}

As you can see here it works.

Yes that works but I want JAVAMETHOD to work as that's more precise to use :)

Seems that JAVAMETHOD is not found, I didn't have time to check if was removed or what's going on with it, but here you can see how it is done

So a quick work around is to create your own custom pattern

JAVAMETHOD (?:(<(?:cl)?init>)|[a-zA-Z$_][a-zA-Z$_0-9]*)

After that this works

But I see even in our application the same issue of not parsing the JAVAMETHOD is happening even though the pattern exists

For some reason is not loading this pattern, also this fails in the grok debugger.
