Hi,
Somedays back I was getting the logs in kibana. Then since two days the logs are getting into filebeat logs but I could not see them on Kibana although I have not made any changes in any file.
Please help me as soon as possible.

Hi!
Could you provide more information about your setup/configuration etc? Anything interesting in what filebeat logging? Are events successfully sent to Elasticsearch?
C.

**#=========================== Filebeat inputs =============================**
**filebeat.inputs:**
**# Each - is an input. Most options can be set at the input level, so**
**# you can use different inputs for various configurations.**
**# Below are the input specific configurations.**
**- type: log**
\*\* # Change to true to enable this input configuration.\*\*
\*\* enabled: true\*\*
\*\* json.keys\_under\_root: true\*\*
\*\* json.add\_error\_key: true\*\*
\*\* json.message\_key: log\*\*
\*\* # Paths that should be crawled and fetched. Glob based paths.\*\*
\*\* paths:\*\*
\*\* - /var/atlassian/application-data/jira/log/\*.log\*\*
\*\* #- c:\programdata\elasticsearch\logs\*\*\*
\*\* # Configure the file encoding for reading files with international characters\*\*
\*\* # following the W3C recommendation for HTML5 ([http://www.w3.org/TR/encoding](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: utf-8\*\*
\*\* # Exclude lines. A list of regular expressions to match. It drops the lines that are\*\*
\*\* # matching any regular expression from the list.\*\*
\*\* #exclude\_lines: ['^DBG']\*\*
\*\* # Include lines. A list of regular expressions to match. It exports the lines that are\*\*
\*\* # matching any regular expression from the list.\*\*
\*\* #include\_lines: ['^ERR', '^WARN']\*\*
In filebeat log file I can lot many errors as:
ERROR readjson/json.go:52 Error decoding JSON: invalid character 't' after object key:value pair
Error decoding JSON: invalid character 'a' looking for beginning of value
But I an getting some good data as well so I am expecting the correct data to be displayed on kibana which I cannot see.
