Hi,
Seems a few people have this issue and different things resolve for different users - I have read a lot of topics and tried many things but I am still unable to get my windows eventlogs to elsaticsearh. Note I am very new to this so hopefully it is just something simple I have done wrong.
Note I have Filebeat running on two Ubuntu servers and the data from them is visible in Kibana.
The winlogbeat file in C:\ProgramData\winlogbeat\Logs shows:
2017-02-15T21:34:54+11:00 INFO Non-zero metrics in the last 30s: libbeat.logstash.publish.read_errors=1 libbeat.logstash.published_but_not_acked_events=1 libbeat.logstash.call_count.PublishEvents=1 libbeat.logstash.publish.write_bytes=645

My Winlogbeat.yml file is:
winlogbeat.event_logs:
- name: Security
ignore_older: 2h
event_id: 4727, 4731, 4754, 4726
output.logstash:
hosts: ["192.168.0.222:5044"]
bulk_max_size: 1024
index: winlogbeat
sls:
certificate_authorities: ["C:/ProgramData/winlogbeat/logstash-forwarder.crt"]
logging.to_files: true
logging.files:
path: C:/ProgramData/winlogbeat/Logs
logging.level: debug
I am a bit confused on what config file I should have running on the logstash server I do have /etc/logstash/conf.d/02-beats-input.conf which contains:
input {
beats {
port => 5044
ssl => true
ssl_certificate => "/etc/pki/tls/certs/logstash-forwarder.crt"
ssl_key => "/etc/pki/tls/private/logstash-forwarder.key"
}
}
output {
elasticsearch {
hosts => "localhost:9200"
manage_template => false
index => "%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
document_type => "%{[@metadata][type]}"
}
}
Any help to get my windows eventlogs showing in kibana will be much appreciated and let me know if I need to provide any more info/logs.
