--------------------------------------
Summary: CEFReader controller service fails to parse large fsize
and oldFileSize values
Key: NIFI-14211
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-14211
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Extensions
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Reporter: Peter Kimberley
The {{CEFReader }}controller service in NiFi 2.1.0 has issues dealing with CEF
field values for {{fsize}} and {{oldFileSize }}larger than a 32-bit integer.
The UI reports this as a number format exception when attempting to parse a
FlowFile record using a {{CEFReader}} service.
I've traced this problem down to the ParCEFone dependency and filed a PR:
[https://github.com/fluenda/ParCEFone/issues/48.]
That repo doesn't seem to be regularly maintained however. If any of the NiFi
devs have maintainer rights to it, please review the issue and PR in order to
resolve this issue at the source.
I'm happy to work up a NiFi PR once the ParCEFone PR is merged and release
pushed to Maven. I've added a helper method in the ParCEFone API to simplify
CEF field type detection in NiFi:
