Is there any information on how config file written for logstash 2.2 should be modified in order to be used on logstash 2.3.x?

All my config fails to work. Nothing runs.

All I get is this

JAVA\_OPTS was set to [-XX:HeapDumpPath="$LS\_HOME/heapdump.hprof"]. Logstash will trust these options, and not set any defaults that it might usually set  
io/console not supported; tty will not be manipulated  
Settings: Default pipeline workers: 4  
Pipeline main started

Have you looked in the release notes?

This message indicates that Logstash started up just fine. What makes you say that it isn't working?
