Elastic Stack Logstash

Hi there,
I have been trying to solve this problem for a day. I couldn't find any solutions.

I got this error. I am going to send cowrie honeypots logs .
So here is my conf file.

        output {
            if [type] == "cowrie" {
                elasticsearch {
                    hosts => ["127.0.0.1:9200"]
                         user => "logstash_internal"
                        password => "XXXXXXXX"
                         ilm_enabled => auto
                    ilm_rollover_alias => "cowrie-logstash"
                }
                #file {
                #    path => "/tmp/cowrie-logstash.log"
                #    codec => json
                #}
                stdout {
                    codec => rubydebug
                }
            }

I gave privileges to logstash_internal user.

So logstash is able to connect to elasticsearch but when it tries to setup ilm it sends a request to elasticsearch to determine whether the rollover index exists. That is getting an error. The elasticsearch logs may give a better error message to explain why it is rejecting the request.

One possibility would be a 403 (possibly your user has the wrong role ).

Check the elasticsearch logs and enable log.level debug in logstash in case you have a problem with certificates or keys.

Thank you Badger.

logstash_internal user has logstash_writer role which has all cluster privileges and as index privileges it has cowrie-logstash-* indicies all privileges.
I changed logging to debug but i am not sure where to look. There are too much information.

There is a debug log just before fatal error. Can it be related?

No, I do not think that is an issue.
