Increase the maximum size of log messages


The problem was not elasticsearch indexing but the maximum message size uploaded from rsyslog udp protocol.

To fix it:

/etc/rsyslog.conf

and define

$MaxMessageSize 256k

at the first line.


I had the same problem with nxlog. Changing ShortMessageLength value in etc/nxlog/nxlog.conf fixed my issue. I hope it maybe be useful for someone.
