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"] } ``` } output { elasticsearch { hosts =\> "localhost" index =\> "cars" document\_type =\> "sold\_cars" } stdout {} } Item #2 C:\Users\mkazemi\Desktop\Elastic\logstash\bin\>logstash -f /users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash\_car.config Sending Logstash's logs to C:/Users/mkazemi/Desktop/Elastic/logstash/logs which is now configured via log4j2.properties [2018-05-04T16:03:41,619][INFO][logstash.agent] No config files found in path {:path=\>"C:/users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash\_car.config"} [2018-05-04T16:03:41,624][ERROR][logstash.agent] failed to fetch pipeline configuration {:message=\>"No config files found: /users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash\_car.config.

Thanks Badger for Response, I add C: in the beginning of my path but I got the same message C:\Users\mkazemi\Desktop\Elastic\logstash\bin\>logstash -f /users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash\_car.config Sending Logstash's logs to C:/Users/mkazemi/Desktop/Elastic/logstash/logs which is now configured via log4j2.properties [2018-05-04T16:32:32,019][INFO][logstash.agent] No config files found in path {:path=\>"C:/users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash\_car.config"} [2018-05-04T16:32:32,035][ERROR][logstash.agent] failed to fetch pipeline configuration {:message=\>"No config files found: /users/mkazemi/desktop/elastic/data/logstash\_car.config.

> [@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. ---

Thanks Badger for input this is what I did as you said but I got the following error message. Pls advise C:\Users\mkazemi\Desktop\Elastic\logstash\bin\>logstash -f C:/users/mkazemi/desktop/data/logstash\_car.config Sending Logstash's logs to C:/Users/mkazemi/Desktop/Elastic/logstash/logs which is now configured via log4j2.properties [2018-05-08T10:32:22,965][ERROR][logstash.agent] failed to fetch pipeline configuration {:message=\>"URI scheme not supported: C:/users/mkazemi/desktop/data/logstash\_car.config\n Either pass a local file path or "file|http://" URI"} ---

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? ---
