Good day, I'm trying to set up data transfer from one Kafka to another using Filebeat. The current version does not work with SASL\_SSL and I have downloaded 8.0.0-rc1. Found a new error: **"Exiting: module kafka is configured but has no enabled filesets"** Didn't find "filesets" in documentation for version 8.0.0 ---

Yes, i want kafka input and output. My config: ```auto filebeat.config.modules: enabled: true path: ${path.config}/modules.d/*.yml filebeat.inputs: - type: kafka hosts: - bootstrap-1:9092 topics: ["test.topic"] group_id: "filebeat" ssl.enabled: yes ssl.certificate_authorities: "/pathTOfile/Root.crt" ssl.certificate: "/pathTOfile/Cert.crt" ssl.key: "/pathTOfile/Key.rsa.key" ssl.key_passphrase: "passphrase" kerberos.auth_type: keytab kerberos.config_path: "/pathTOfile/krb5.conf" kerberos.keytab: "/pathTOfile/mykeytab.keytab" kerberos.username: "username" kerberos.service_name: "kafka" kerberos.realm: "REALM.REALM" filebeat.modules: - module: kafka processors: output.kafka: hosts: ["bootstrap-1:2892"] topic: 'test.topic' partition.round_robin: reachable_only: true required_acks: 1 compression: gzip max_message_bytes: 1000000 ssl.enabled: yes ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/pathTOfile/Root.crt"] ssl.certificate: "/pathTOfile/Cert.crt" ssl.key: "/pathTOfile/Key.rsa.key" ssl.key_passphrase: "passphrase" kerberos.auth_type: keytab kerberos.config_path: "/pathTOfile/krb5.conf" kerberos.keytab: "/pathTOfile/mykeytab.keytab" kerberos.username: "username" kerberos.service_name: "kafka" kerberos.realm: "REALM.REALM" ``` ---

It's hard to say. It seems that it's having issues connecting to ur Kafka instance. I'd check all the connection parameters. ---

This connection parameters use in another apps like console-consumer, KafkaHQ, CMAK etc. Not working only in filebeat ;( ---
