Hello,
You did not say what the source charset is. Even without that there
shouldn't be invalid utf-8 characters in the output after convert_fields()
is called.
Can you confirm that this is not a logstash issue? The following would
help troubleshoot this:
* config file: im_file => convert_fields => om_file
* input file used to feed im_file
* output produced by om_file
Regards,
Botond
