Logstash_forwarder connected to lostash-server-IP but never receive event

I'm not positive, but one issue I've seen is with multiple types, like you have here:

"fields": { "type": "json" }

But you are then sending it to 5002, which you have as:
type => "logs"

It shouldn't matter for anything but filter activation, etc. but I would try to only put one "type" on the entry. Also, is it possible you are sending the output to another index that you aren't looking at in kibana?
