Hello
Just installed and configured packetbeat (7.6.2) on the elastic server (7.6.2).
filebeat and metricbeat also run on the same server(s), and of course elasticsearch.
packetbeat is not sending any data, so I wanted to debug.
when trying to debug with
packetbeat -e
Getting the following messages
[root@ELSSERVER packetbeat]# packetbeat -e
2020-06-24T13:11:23.176+1000    INFO    instance/beat.go:622    Home path: [/usr/share/packetbeat] Config path: [/etc/packetbeat] Data path: [/var/lib/packetbeat] Logs path: [/var/log/packetbeat]

I searched the forum and generally the net, and could not find a solution.
packetbeat.yml -->
