Hi, to solve the error

> ERROR StatusLogger No log4j2 configuration file found. Using default configuration: logging only errors to the console.

You must replacein the runner.rb file at  
( [your\_path\_to]/logstash-5.3.0\logstash-core\lib\logstash\runner.rb) the line:

> LogStash::Logging::Logger::initialize("file://" + log4j\_config\_location)

by the line:

> LogStash::Logging::Logger::initialize("file:///" + log4j\_config\_location)

I had this problem and I solved it but I still having a problem similar to yours (the index is not created in elasticsearch) . I posted it in a new topic [here](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/importing-csv-with-logstash-and-create-an-index-in-elasticsearch/83689)
