I have trouble to get the logstash (2.4.0) tutorial to work on Windows 7.
This is working: bin\logstash.bat -f pipe.conf
# pipe.conf
input {
stdin { }
}
output {
stdout { }
}
When I enter then code in the msdos-window, I get expected log messages.
C:\Users\foo\Workspace\Reporting\Stack5.0 pipe.conf
Settings: Default pipeline workers: 4
Pipeline main started
configuration in a file
2016-10-10T14:32:13.506Z foopc configuration in a file
yehaaaa
2016-10-10T14:32:18.320Z foopc yehaaaa
Tweaking the configuration file to get close to the tutorial, does not work. Then I get the following error message:
{
:timestamp=>"2016-10-10T16:45:25.605000+0200",
:message=>"Pipeline aborted due to error",
:exception=>"ArgumentError",
:backtrace=>["C:/Users/foo/Workspace/Reporting/Stack5.0/logstash-2.4.0/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/logstash-input-file-2.2.5/lib/logstash/inputs/file.rb:187:in `register'",

:level=>:error} {:timestamp=>"2016-10-10T16:45:28.608000+0200",

}
I call the script like before with: bin\logstash.bat -f pipe.conf
# pipe.conf
input {
# stdin { }
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/advanced-pipeline.html#configuring-file-input
# logstash 2.4.0
file {
path => "logstash-tutorial-dataset"
start_position => beginning
ignore_older => 0
}
}
# The filter part of this file is commented out to indicate that it is
# optional.
filter {
grok {
match => { "message" => "%{COMBINEDAPACHELOG}"}
}
}
output {
stdout { }
}
The logfile: logstash-tutorial-dataset is available and accessable. I downloaded the file from the tutorial.
What did I miss and how do I get logstash to work with this configuration?
