Logstash is not reading Json file

HI,

Logstash not giving any out put for Json input, my config as follows.

input {
file {
codec => json
type => "json"
path => "/path/*"
start_position => "beginning"
sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
ignore_older => 0
}
}
filter {
json {
source => "message"
}
}
output {
stdout{codec => rubydebug}
}

Logstash version - 2.4

Json file is as follows,

Please help with this

Does the input file end with a newline character?

You should get useful clues if you bump Logstash's logging level. One possible cause could be a typo in the filename pattern or a permissions issue.

Hi Magnus,

Thanks for your reply, after adding newline to files able to read the files.

Thanks,
Uday.K
