Kibana cannot capture the JSON logs start with "code" ="0000000" - json

Hello I am very new to elastic stack and I am trying to extract useful information based on the system logs (in JSON format) in Kibana. I am using filebeat to send to kibana in elastic cloud.
Problem: basically, I cannot view the data i send to kibana in the following format
{"code":"28000","file":"auth.c","length":164,"level":"error","line":"496","message":"no pg_hba.conf entry",everity":"FATAL","timestamp":"2022-10-05 08:40:14.308"}
Kibana is ignoring all the lines start with "code":"000000".
however, the following formatted logs have no prob.
{"code":"SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN","level":"error","message":"self signed certificate in certificate chain,"requestId":"166666666623piq9lzd2ngllllll","timestamp":"2022-10-05 08:40:39.908"}
and
{"level":"error","message":"Login was refused using authentication mechanism PLAIN.","requestId":"199999999udchsuz8d2s5aoszqw6w7","stack":"Error: Handshake terminated by server","timestamp":"2022-10-05 08:57:37.330"}
Please see the filebeat.yml below.

Setting up a CSV Data Adapter locally

I am trying to set up the Data Visualization extension to use data from csv file for the sensors based on this example:
https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/dataviz/v1/developers_guide/advanced_topics/csv_adapter/
So the csv data I am trying to use is the default Hyperion-1.csv in folder server\gateways\csv. Do I need to add/change some other settings as well?
It is showing the following error in Chrome console:
I have these settings for the csv in .env file.
And these in devices.json in server\gateways\synthetic-data folder.
I've just taken the following steps to enable the CSV data adapter which seemed to work fine:
Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/Autodesk-Forge/forge-dataviz-iot-reference-app
Install dependencies: npm install
Create a copy of server/env_template and rename it to server/.env
Modify the contents of server/.env, commenting out all the initial env. variables, uncommenting the CSV-related env. vars, and setting their corresponding values:
# FORGE_CLIENT_ID=
# FORGE_CLIENT_SECRET=
# FORGE_ENV=AutodeskProduction
# FORGE_API_URL=https://developer.api.autodesk.com
# FORGE_CALLBACK_URL=http://localhost:9000/oauth/callback
#
# FORGE_BUCKET=

# ADAPTER_TYPE=local

## End - Connect to Azure IoTHub and Time Series Insights

ADAPTER_TYPE=csv
CSV_MODEL_JSON=server/gateways/synthetic-data/device-models.json

CSV_FOLDER=server/gateways/csv/

CSV_DELIMITER="\t"
CSV_LINE_BREAK="\n"
CSV_TIMESTAMP_COLUMN="time"
CSV_FILE_EXTENSION=".csv"
## End - Please uncomment the following part if you want to use a CSV file as the time series provider
Run the app with ENV set to "local": ENV=local npm run dev
After these steps the app is running successfully, however you'll get some other errors because the server/gateways/csv folder only contains data for a single sensor (Hyperion-1).
Btw. I've been working on an alternative DataViz sample app that aims to be simpler and easier to reuse: https://github.com/petrbroz/forge-iot-extensions-demo (which uses https://github.com/petrbroz/forge-iot-extensions under the hood).

OpenSSH server logging in container

I have a OpenSSH service running on a container(rhel7), but I am unable to log any login attempts of it. I can confirm rsyslogd is running via ps -A, but I could not find the file /var/log/auth.log and /var/log/messages was empty. How can I enable login logs for this container? Thanks.

docker logs CONTAINER_ID
A container is an isolated process, it doesn't share resources with the host OS, without specifically configuring what you would share.

CONFIG_FILE=/usr/cygnus/conf/agent_1.conf
AGENT_NAME=cygnusagent

Although I dont use OrionHDFSSink and OrionCKANSink, I didnt touch those configurations because I really am not sure weather I should.
When I finally subscribeContext and target cygnus # default port 5050, I get a normal response, but nothing is created in my database
What am I doing wrong here?
First of all, feel free to remove the HDFS and CKAN configuration parts. You will avoid unnecessary logs related to those components when running Cygnus. Of course, remember to delete all references to sinks and channels; specifically:
cygnusagent.sources = http-source
cygnusagent.sinks = mysql-sink
cygnusagent.channels = mysql-channel
...
cygnusagent.sources.http-source.channels = mysql-channel
Second, the answer to your question can be found in the documentation:
Within tables, we can find two options:
Fixed 8-field rows, as usual: recvTimeTs, recvTime, entityId, entityType, attrName, attrType, attrValue and attrMd. These tables (and the databases) are created at execution time if the table doesn't exist previously to the row insertion. Regarding attrValue, in its simplest form, this value is just a string, but since Orion 0.11.0 it can be Json object or Json array. Regarding attrMd, it contains a string serialization of the metadata array for the attribute in Json (if the attribute hasn't metadata, an empty array [] is inserted),
Two columns per each entity's attribute (one for the value and other for the metadata), plus an addition column about the reception time of the data (recv_time). This kind of tables (and the databases) must be provisioned previously to the execution of Cygnus, because each entity may have a different number of attributes, and the notifications must ensure a value per each attribute is notified.
The behaviour of the connector regarding the internal representation of the data is governed through a configuration parameter, attr_persistence, whose values can be row or column.
Maybe there is a problem with the writting, I think the last paragraph must enda as "... whole values can be row or column, and whose behavior correspond to the options described above, respectively".
I.e. if you are using the colummn mode, then the database and the tables must be provisioned in advanced.
There is a similar question where I explain in more detail such a behavior.
HTH!
