Below is configuration on Logstash 5 server

input {  
kafka {  
topics =\> ["logstash\_logs"]  
bootstrap\_servers =\> "zk\_server:2181"  
codec =\> plain {  
format =\> "%{message}"  
}  
}  
}

input {  
beats {  
port =\> 5044  
ssl =\> true  
ssl\_certificate =\> "/etc/pki/tls/certs/logstash-forwarder.crt"  
ssl\_key =\> "/etc/pki/tls/private/logstash-forwarder.key"  
}  
}

output{  
stdout{}  
}

filebeat is configured on same machine as that of Logstash server. It is configured correctly as well.

Still I cannot see data in /var/log/logstash/logstash.stdout .

logstash is started with -log.level=debug still I cannot see any thing in log /var/log/logstash/logstash.log

Please help me to debug setup
