How to start Logstash config-file

votes

i have a problem with logstash when i want to start from my config file with the command"bin/logstash -f logstash-rt.conf" this return: Error: No config files found: logstash-rt.conf Can you make sure this path is a logstash config file? You may be interested in the '--configtest' flag which you can use to validate logstash's configuration before you choose to restart a running system.

can someone help me ?

Thanks

do an ls -al logstash-rt.conf from the directory you are starting from. Is the file there? Does it have read permissions for the user you are starting logstash as? - Alcanzar

You need to put config file in logstash folder and the path should be of the logstash folder when you execute the command so bin/logstash is the relative path when you run it where the conf file is.

Make a .config file and then paste it into the bin folder of Logstash and then use the below command in cmd to start it

logstash -f filename.config
