Hi All,

I have setup logstash on one of the UNIX server. When i tried to run configtest using the following command:  
./bin/logstash -f /fmsapp/logstash/conf/ --configtest

it's giving me an error:  
No such file or directory: bash.

While i am having bash file on that server.

Please Guide.

Regards,  
Shrawan

Is bash in your shell's path? I.e. can you type "bash" to start a new shell?
