Hi, I'm trying to push data from logstash to more then 2 index using single logstash.conf file. below is my configuration: input { beats { port =\> 5044 } } input { file { type =\> "java" path =\> "C:/ELK/ProjectsLogs/spring-boot-elk.log" start\_position =\> "beginning" codec =\> multiline { pattern =\> "^%{YEAR}-%{MONTHNUM}-%{MONTHDAY} %{TIME}.\*" negate =\> "true" what =\> "previous" } } } filter { #If log line contains tab character followed by 'at' then we will tag that entry as stacktrace if [message] =~ "\tat" { grok { match =\> { "message" =\> ["^(\tat)"] } add\_tag =\> ["stacktrace"] } } ``` grok { # INFO match => { "message" => ["^%{YEAR}-%{MONTHNUM}-%{MONTHDAY} %{TIME} \.* INFO.*"] } add_field => { "type" => "info" } } grok { # DEBUG match => { "message" => ["^%{YEAR}-%{MONTHNUM}-%{MONTHDAY} %{TIME} \.* DEBUG.*"] } add_field => { "type" => "debug" } } grok { # ERROR match => { "message" => ["^%{YEAR}-%{MONTHNUM}-%{MONTHDAY} %{TIME} \.* ERROR.*"] } add_field => { "type" => "error" } } ``` if "\_grokparsefailure" in [tags] { drop {} } } output{ if [type] == "info" { elasticsearch { hosts =\> ["localhost:9200"] index =\> "infoindexer" } } else if [type] == "debug" { elasticsearch { hosts =\> ["localhost:9200"] index =\> "debugindexer" } }else{ elasticsearch { hosts =\> ["localhost:9200"] index =\> "errorindexer" } } stdout { codec =\> rubydebug } } My Logstash server is running without any issue but not able to see index and logs in Kibana. Could someone please help me to solve this issue? Thanks in advance. ---

Did you create the index pattern in Kibana? You can see indexes in Kibana index management before creating index patters too, ---

Hi Len Rugen, I cant see index infoindexer, debugindexer and errorindexerin in Kibana which I mentioned in logstash.conf. So I couldn't create them. Even I have put some logs for INFO, DEBUG and ERROR in input logs file. But In Logstash console nothing is appearing to send to ElasticSearch. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/3/632e4c8b84fe9bcf94c358195b9cee3de74b6e27.png) Could you please help me to know whether my config looks good or I need to make changes in order to get indexes in Kibana? Thanks, Jeet Ram ---

I would take baby steps as your logstash.conf have multiple things Step1: Just create the inputs and no filter, just put it to the elasticsearch "infoindexer" Step2: if above works, then put the filters one by one and see it all comes to "infoindexer" Step3: if above works, then put the full blown logic I always like to build things up rather than putting all the configs at the start itself and then debug. ---

```auto Even I was following same but after your comment i followed it with more focus and now I'm able to achieve what i wanted. My config looks like: input { beats { port => 5044 } } input { file { type => "java" path => "C:/ELK/ProjectsLogs/spring-boot-elk.log" start_position => "beginning" codec => multiline { pattern => "^%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601}" negate => "true" what => "previous" } } } filter { #If log line contains tab character followed by 'at' then we will tag that entry as stacktrace if [message] =~ "\tat" { grok { match => { "message" => ["^(\tat)"]} add_tag => ["stacktrace"] } } grok { match => { "message" => ["%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601:timestamp} %{LOGLEVEL:loglevel} %{GREEDYDATA:message}"] } match => { "message" => ["%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601:timestamp} %{LOGLEVEL:loglevel} %{GREEDYDATA:message}"] } add_field => { "subType" => "%{loglevel}" } } if "_grokparsefailure" in [tags] { drop {} } } filter { mutate { lowercase => ["subType"] } } output{ elasticsearch { hosts => ["localhost:9200"] index => "%{subType}_indexer" } stdout { codec => rubydebug } } ``` Thank you for giving you valuable input. ---
