There should definitely be an additional message saying what exception occurred. If there is not one, try running --log.level debug ---

> [@Simone1](#): > > exception=\>#\ That error occurs [here](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-filter-mutate/blob/d45bfb7211fc0a11afd7dc917cefa295752cc63d/lib/logstash/filters/mutate.rb#L222). You have a mutate filter with a convert option and one of the converts has an invalid type. For example ``` mutate { convert => { "[some][field]" => "text" } } ``` The error field of the exception contains the exact details of what the incorrect option is, but sadly logstash does not print that. ---
