Filebeat logging directly to elasticsearch

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Hi guys,

i am trying to log from filebeat directly to elasticsearch. Could it be possible that this feature isn't working properly at all?

I get no erros on startup, during the run and on shutdown, even not in debug mode. Also no data hit's up in my elasticsearch cluster.

Configuration is pretty straight forward, so i think there is really no problem with that. Version is 1.1.1 for Fedora or centos, both OS the same.

......
output:

Elasticsearch as output

elasticsearch:
hosts: ["192.168.178.154:9200,192.168.178.155:9200,192.168.178.161:9200"]
......

Don't you have any indentation in your configuration file, i.e. is it really

output:
elasticsearch:
hosts: ...

rather than

output:
  elasticsearch:
    hosts: ...

?

It has the indentation, like in your second example. It works now, it was just a different index in Kibana.

Thanks anyway.
