Hi,

In recent version of filebeat6.2.4 "document\_type" is missing.

and on ELK server i have stetted the filter for logstash with reference to type is :

filter {  
if [type] == "syslog" {  
grok {  
match =\> { "message" =\> "%{SYSLOGTIMESTAMP:syslog\_timestamp} %{SYSLOGHOST:syslog\_hostname} %{DATA:syslog\_program}(?:[%{POSINT:syslog\_pid}])?: %{GREEDYDATA:syslog\_message}" }  
add\_field =\> ["received\_at", "%{@timestamp}"]  
add\_field =\> ["received\_from", "%{host}"]  
}  
date {  
match =\> ["syslog\_timestamp", "MMM d HH:mm:ss", "MMM dd HH:mm:ss"]  
}  
}  
}

Due to that i am not able to set indices.  
In kibana it is showing "Couldn't find any Elasticsearch data "

Please help me to resolve this.
