Filebeats: ERR Connecting error publishing events

Hey all,

So i seem to be getting an issue similar to others on here.

Filebeats is running and so is logstash

I can telnet to localhost:5044

Filebeat.yml

#----------------------------- Logstash output --------------------------------

    filebeat.prospectors:

# Each - is a prospector. Most options can be set at the prospector level, so
# you can use different prospectors for various configurations.
# Below are the prospector specific configurations.

- input_type: log

  # Paths that should be crawled and fetched. Glob based paths.
  paths:
    - /Users/blupace/Applications/logstash-tutorial2.log

#output.logstash:
  # The Logstash hosts
    hosts: ["localhost:5044"]




first-pipeline.conf

input {
    beats {
        host => "localhost"
        port => "5044"
    }
}
# The filter part of this file is commented out to indicate that it is
# optional.
# filter {
#
# }
output {
    stdout { codec => rubydebug }
}

Im not sure why the connection keeps getting closed.
Running logstash 5.4.0
Running filebeat 5.4.0

Envioroment: Mac

OK so i figured this out, i needed to remove the comment before output.logstash:

#output.logstash:
  # The Logstash hosts
    hosts: ["localhost:5044"]
