#################################################
paths:

Can you post your complete config file? paths is an array and should be given only once per prospector. Your sample config does not include the prospectors.

Thanks for reply,
Please find the below my config file:-

############################# Filebeat ######################################
filebeat:
  # List of prospectors to fetch data.
  prospectors:
    # Each - is a prospector. Below are the prospector specific configurations
    -
      # Paths that should be crawled and fetched. Glob based paths.
      # To fetch all ".log" files from a specific level of subdirectories
      # /var/log/*/*.log can be used.
      # For each file found under this path, a harvester is started.
      # Make sure not file is defined twice as this can lead to unexpected behaviour.
      #paths:
       # - /var/log/*.log
        #- c:\programdata\elasticsearch\logs\*
      paths:
         - /FirstKannel/opt/kannel/var/log/kannel_access.log
      document_type: kannel2-access


      paths:
        - "/var/log/tomcat8/localhost_access_log.*.txt"
      document_type: Report-Access

      # Configure the file encoding for reading files with international characters
      # following the W3C recommendation for HTML5 (http://www.w3.org/TR/encoding).
      # Some sample encodings:
      #   plain, utf-8, utf-16be-bom, utf-16be, utf-16le, big5, gb18030, gbk,
      #    hz-gb-2312, euc-kr, euc-jp, iso-2022-jp, shift-jis, ...
      #encoding: plain

      # Type of the files. Based on this the way the file is read is decided.
      # The different types cannot be mixed in one prospector
      #
      # Possible options are:
      # * log: Reads every line of the log file (default)
      # * stdin: Reads the standard in
      input_type: log

registry_file: /var/lib/filebeat/registry

output:

### Logstash as output
  logstash:
    # The Logstash hosts
    hosts: ["10.0.0.21:5088"]
    bulk_max_size: 1024
    # Number of workers per Logstash host.
    #worker: 1

    # Set gzip compression level.
    #compression_level: 3

    # Optional load balance the events between the Logstash hosts
    #loadbalance: true

    # Optional index name. The default index name depends on the each beat.
    # For Packetbeat, the default is set to packetbeat, for Topbeat
    # top topbeat and for Filebeat to filebeat.
    #index: filebeat

    # Optional TLS. By default is off.

It looks like you try to define two prospectors but only defined one. There is a - missing in front of the second paths:.
