Hello all;

I am using the following config. to import CVS file using logstash but when I call it, it give me the error that I have listed in item number 2. I would appreciate your assistance.

Thanks

item #1
input {
file {
path => "/users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/cars.csv"
start_position => "beginning"
sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
}
}
filter {
csv {

	separator => ","

	columns => [ "maker", "model", "mileage", "manufacture_year", "engine_displacement", "engine_power", 
	"body_type", "color_slug", "stk_year" , "transmission", "door_count", "seat_count", "fule_type","date_created", 
	"date_last_seen", "price_eur"]
}

mutate {convert => ["mileage", "integer"] }
mutate {convert => ["price_eur", "float"] }
mutate {convert => ["engine_power", "integer"] }
mutate {convert => ["door_count", "integer"] }
mutate {convert => ["seat_count", "integer"] }

C:\Users\mkazemi\Desktop\Elastic\logstash\bin>logstash -f /users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash_car.config

What happens if you include the drive letter in the path to the config?

Thanks Badger for Response, I add C: in the beginning of my path but I got the same message

@moe.kazemi

C:\Users\mkazemi\Desktop\Elastic\logstash\bin>logstash -f /users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash_car.config

I do not see a drive letter in the path to the config. Can you try running

logstash -f C:/users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash_car.config

Please use appropriate markup when posting logs. Using an indent of 4 spaces is what I did there.

[moe.kazemi (Moe)]

Thanks Badger for input this is what I did as you said but I got the following error message. Pls advise

Reading it again I think you had it correct the first time (without the drive letter). Is logstash_car.config really in the data directory?
