hello guys  
i'm facing a problem .. logstrash can not load data to elasticsearch  
i'm using my own config file ..and it seems ok for me ..when i run it ..it shows no error but the end point is port 9600 instead of 9200  
here is my config file :  
input {  
file {  
path =\> "C:/filec/new2.log"  
start\_position =\> beginning  
ignore\_older =\> 0  
sincedb\_path =\> "NIL" #easier to remove from the current directory, the file will be NIL.sincedb  
type =\> "logs"

```
}

```

}  
filter {  
grok{  
match=\>{"message"=\>"%{IP:client}%{SPACE}%{GREEDYDATA:rest}"}  
}  
}  
output {  
elasticsearch{  
hosts=\>["localhost:9200"]  
index=\>"apachindex2-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"  
}  
stdout { codec =\> rubydebug }  
}

and here the result after i run it :

This says to ignore any files that were created zero or more seconds ago, which is all files. Remove it.

@Yasso

Whats is the version of Elastic stack you are using ?  
Because the type is deprecated in new versions of stack

just go with the following code in the input section of logstash and give it a try

.......  
file {  
path =\> "C:/filec/new2.log"  
start\_position =\> beginning  
}  
........

@mancharagopan  
that's fine which means the logstash is working (up and running).

1)Some times it gets struck their  
then open the file and add/delete some lines and save the file

These can help because the logstash is up and it is waiting for active file.

if the above didn't work try the below one.

2)Check file has read and write permissions if not make sure it has

if you are linux user  
chmod 777

Hope this solves your issue.
