Why does this parser do/catch nothing?

Howdy -- Just set up NPNPlus + Crowdsec as a docker stack. I tested bad logins to *arr apps and did not get bounced (bouncer is working, i can manully add my IP to the block list and get bounced). ChatGPT said it's because of the way *arr responds to a bad log in and i needed a custom parser to catch it. I'm trying to catch this 'loginFailed=true'. Parser is here: ./parsers/s01-parse/LoginFailedTrue.yaml. Content: name: local/LoginFailedTrue description: "Detect Sonarr/Radarr failed logins from NPMplus logs" stage: s01-parse #debug: true onsuccess: next_stage nodes: - grok: apply_on: Line.Raw pattern: '%{DATA}loginFailed=true%{DATA}' statics: - meta: log_type value: LoginFailedTrue - meta: service value: arr-suite But it just doesn't seem to match anyhting! You can see here it is installed and being applied against logs, but 0 hits (even though I have done failed log ins and can see lines in the access.logs when I look) $docker exec -it crowdsec cscli parsers inspect local/LoginFailedTrue type: parsers stage: s01-parse name: local/LoginFailedTrue file_name: LoginFailedTrue.yaml dependencies: {} local_path: /etc/crowdsec/parsers/s01-parse/LoginFailedTrue.yaml downloadpath: "" up_to_date: true tainted: false installed: true local: true Current metrics: │ (Parser) local/LoginFailedTrue
│ Parsers │ Hits │ Parsed │ Unparsed │ │ appsec:appsec │ 3 │ 0 │ 3 │ │ file:/opt/npmplus/nginx/access.log │ 2154 │ 0 │ 2154 │ │ file:/opt/npmplus/nginx/error.log │ 179 │ 0 │ 179 │ ChatGPT is no help here and I can't find documentaiton that seems to cover this. Can anyone help?

So you never want to create a s01 parser (unless it a completely new application that we dont have on the hub) because those are already made for applications such as NPMPlus, so creating a s01 will most likely cause all other log lines to become unparsed. What you want to do is create a scenario based on the information which is parsed from the npmplus parser. if you run cscli explain --log "<log line>" --type npmplus -v it will show you all of the variable you have access too.
