Hi,

I am trying to run the config file in logstash by using command like  
logstash -f D:\Data\IIB\_log.config but receiving the below error.

2018-03-19T09:00:26.353Z admin-PC "  
2018-03-19T09:00:26.368Z admin-PC Error,18-02-18 14:34,SideBySide,33,None,"Activ  
ation context generation failed for ""F:\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\64BitMAPIBroke

ublicKeyToken=""1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"",type=""win32"",version=""9.0.21022.8"" could  
not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis."

**I setup the configuration in logstash.yml like below**

xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.url: ["localhost:9200"]  
xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.username: "elastic"  
xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.password: "changeme"  
xpack.monitoring.enabled: true

**My config file contains**

input{  
file{  
path=\>"D:\Data\Sys\_logs.csv"  
start\_position=\>"beginning"  
sincedb\_path=\>"/dev/null"

```
}

```

}  
filter{  
csv{  
separator=\>","  
columns=\>["Level","Date and Time","Source","Event ID","Task Category"]  
}

}  
output{  
elasticsearch{  
hosts=\>["localhost:9200"]  
user =\> "elastic"  
password =\> "changeme"  
index=\>"iiblogfile"  
document\_type=\>"log\_visual"  
}  
stdout{}  
}

Please help me out
