Error when I'm launching logstash

[lgllrd]

Hi,
I'm trying to launch logstash with my .conf file but it tell me an error that I don't understand :

Expected one of #, {, } at line 24

Look at line 24 of your config, my guess would be that there is a { without a friend!

start_position => "beginning\n }\n}\nfilter {\n#Dans le cas de multiple filtres, ils sont traités par ordre d'apparence\n}\noutput {\n# elasticsearch {hosts=>["

You do not have a closing quote on the value of start_position, so it is consuming everything up to the opening quote of the hosts option on the elasticsearch output, then failing to parse.
