Invalid field format when writing data to influxdb from csv file using logstash-output-plugin

Hi there!

I am trying to get vmstat output (in CSV format) and load the data into influxdb using logstash and logstash-output-plugin, but am getting error "invalid field format" when writing data to influxdb. See details below.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks

OS: Windows 7 Enterprise
InfluxDB: 1.5.2-1
logstash: 6.2.4
logstash-output-influxdb plugin

CSV file:
2018-06-14 12:09:30.123,13,0,0
2018-06-14 12:09:40.123,27,0,0
2018-06-14 12:09:50.123,98,0,0

logstash config file:
input {
stdin {}
file {
path => "C:/Temp/*.csv"
start_position => "beginning"
}
}

filter {
csv {
separator => ","
columns => ["vmtimestamp","procsR","procsB","procsW"]

	convert => {
	  "procsR" => "integer"
	  "procsB" => "integer"
	  "procsW" => "integer"
	}
}

}

output {
influxdb {
id => "influxdb1"
host => "localhost"
db => "monitoring"
allow_time_override => true
exclude_fields => ["@timestamp", "@version", "sequence", "message", "type", "path"]
codec => json
}

stdout { codec => json}
}

logstash stdout:
