Hi Jochen, I tried again. It looks like the timezone field needs to be filled in. if left blank, no messages will be shipped to graylog server.
However, I tried "Toronto", "GMT+4". Both did not fix the timezone issue with timestamp having correct minutes/seconds/milliseconds, but not hours. When I use "GMT-4", messages did not get shipped in. For example, the best case is like: The converted timestamp: 2016-10-18 15:01:34.559 and the real timestamp from application log is: 2016-10-18 11:01:34:559 There is a four hour difference (when the timezone is configured as either "Toronto" or "GMT+4" What is correct timezone setting that can fix this issue?
