Filebeat include_lines problem

I want to extract the logs that include the "FaceLogBean" ,Configuration file is:

filebeat.prospectors: 
    - input_type: log
      document_type: cloud
      paths:
           - /usr/logs/*.log
      include_lines:["FaceLogBean"]
      multiline.pattern: '^[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}'
      multiline.negate: true
      multiline.match: after
      multiline.timeout: 10s
    output.logstash:
       # The Logstash hosts
      hosts: ["localhost:5044"]

After the configuration, the filebeat startup failed:

 filebeat.service - filebeat
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/filebeat.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: failed (Result: start-limit) since Fri 2018-03-02 11:41:14 CST; 27s ago

But annotate the code “ include_lines:["FaceLogBean"]”and start the success.
Hope to get help,thank!

Could you check your filebeat log file and share it here. This should contain some more info.

BTW: I tried to edit your post above to make the code parts readable.

Thank you for your reply,I've solved this problem.I add a space behind "include_lines:" and I can run it.
