Search do not include escaped characters #576

Closed tleveque23 closed 9 years ago

tleveque23 commented 10 years ago

In my search string I used message:"Handling:" I used the '\' to escape the ':' character. But Graylog seams to ignore that. It return me everything that include the "Handling" string. With or without the ':' after. I think this is a bug.

We are using: Server and graylog2-web-interface v0.20.2

this is unfortunately related to how the data is analyzed when written to elasticsearch. we know that this can greatly confused users and are working on making this more obvious.
