We've upgraded our ELK stack from 6.4 version to 6.8.20 version. Elasticsearch and Kibana were upgraded without any issues. But we observed that Logstash service is restarting continuously after the upgradation.
Elastic: 6.8.20
Kibana:6.8.20
Logstash: 6.8.20
We found the below error logs in Logstash.
