My kibana has no results and I can't figure out why. I'm not sure if my filebeat is not forwarding to logstash or if my logstash is not going to elastic search. Everything is configured correctly from what I can tell. There was an old node in filebeat that is still showing when I curl the local host:9200, but my new node never binds so I'm not getting incoming logging data.
Any ideas?
my elasticsearch log:

What data is in ES? Check with `_cat/indices`.

There's no filebeat related indices there that I can see, so I'd check LS to make sure it's ok.
Start simple, use a stdout in your output.

Is this what you mean?
```
output {
elasticsearch {
hosts => ["localhost:9200"]
sniffing => true
manage_template => false
index => "%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
document_type => "%{[@metadata][type]}"
stdout { codec => rubydebug }
}
}
```

Almost, the stdout needs to be outside the ES section.
