Hello, need help to resolve the issue i am having with Logstash. i am running the logstash as a windows service and every minute it is creating " **jruby-2060**" folders and " **jffi864646030055918690.dll**" files in c:\windows\temp directory and it is filling up my entire disk space if i do not stop the service and clean the files. i enabled the debug logging and found following information **[2019-08-16T08:27:53,153][DEBUG][logstash.config.source.multilocal] Reading pipeline configurations from YAML {:location=\>"C:/Users/ramirsir/Downloads/logstash-7.2.0/logstash-7.2.0/config/pipelines.yml"}** **[2019-08-16T08:27:53,197][ERROR][org.logstash.Logstash] java.lang.IllegalStateException: Logstash stopped processing because of an error: (SystemExit) exit** i see the service is up and running but found the information in logstash-plain.log file. your help is appreciated. thank you. ---
