Filebeat unable to ship non modified files to logstash

Hello,

I configured filebeat.yml to send data to logstash, I just specified where my data are stored and the ip address of my logstash.

I have a python script to generate data, if I don't change any line in my data, filebeat don't send them to logstash. And after a modification filebeat succeed to send data to logstash.

I would like send these files to logstash without being constrained to modify them by hand each time.

Thank you for your help.

Please share the debug logs of Filebeat (output of ./filebeat -e -d "*").

hello, you want me to provide more log ?

Does your script add a newline to the end of log lines it generates? Filebeat needs a newline at the end of a line in order to detect a finished log line.
