Hi there,

I was trying to enable logstash to connect to a server (through environment variables, this is a Docker custom image) that has Tibco JMS message queues. However, I cannot use those environment variables in the .yml (EMS section) file (or I am not using them correctly in the file) and when I use the broker\_url config in logstash it looks like it is overridden by the .yml configuration.

So for instance, if I use ${JMS\_SERVER} in the broker\_url config, I get the JMS Consumer failed to connect to the server at localhost error. Which, I guess, is probably a default configuration in the server\_url yml file.

Any idea of how can I get this through?

Many thanks,  
Pedro
