Hi, I am new to logstash and using logstash to add my logs with Elasticsearch. But I can't get through this error. Please help. It is urgent.

Hello,

There is no SLA in this forum, so marking your question as urgent won't make any difference.

Your log error is pretty clear:

      # This setting must be a number
      # Expected number, got "seconds" (type seconds)
      timeout => "seconds"
      ...
    }

The timeout setting in the elapsed filter needs to be a number representing the amount of seconds, the default value is 1800, this is explained in the documentation.

Also, see if you can move your question to the correct forum, it is a Logstash issue but you tagged as a Kibana issue.
