I am running Logstash with the command:

`/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash --debug "--path.settings" "/etc/logstash2"`

And getting this DEBUG message

It continually hangs there and I have to Ctrl-C to quit. No data is making its way in to Kibana.

My config looks like this:

> input {  
> gelf {  
> id =\> "gelf-22001"  
> use\_tcp =\> true  
> port =\> 22001  
> }  
> }  
> output {  
> elasticsearch {  
> hosts =\> ["localhost"]  
> index =\> "index-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"  
> }  
> }

This was running successfully previously but my VM ran out of memory so I had to resize the disk and now cannot see what is preventing it running again?

Thanks
