I have installed ELK 5.6.8 on Redhat machine. I am using this to show MySQL database records on kibana. I have kept mysql_logstash.conf file in /etc/logstash/conf.d directory but still it's not running in the backend. Manually I am able to run it from /usr/share/logstash/bin directory. My Apache access logs conf file is successfully running in backed from /etc/logstash/conf.d directory.
Yes. I have checked logstash logs but there are no such errors.
Okay, but are there any signs that the query is made at all? How do you know the correct configuration is even being loaded? If you bump up Logstash's loglevel you'll get additional debugging output.
What would be the best way to give MySQL socket access to logstash user?
Presumably socket access is guarded by a group. The logstash user needs to be in that group.
