Hi, i'm using Logstash 7.6.0 and i am trying to make a function where i read logs on port 3003. to do so i installed the http output plugin and created a file called plugin.conf in /usr/share/logstash/config as so:
output {
http {
url => "127.0.0.1:3003"
http_method => "post"
}
}
and on port 3003 there is gonna be another script listening.
i start logstash through the command
/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash -f /usr/share/logstash/config/
but after 5 seconds logstash suts down with this error:
[ERROR] 2020-02-27 09:10:38.782 [Converge PipelineAction::Create] agent - Failed to execute action {:action=>LogStash::PipelineAction::Create/pipeline_id:main, :exception=>"LogStash::ConfigurationError", :message=>"Expected one of [ \t\r\n], "#", "input", "filter", "output" at line 1, column 1 (byte 1)", :backtrace=>["/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/compiler.rb:47:in compile_imperative'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/compiler.rb:55:in compile_graph'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/compiler.rb:17:in block in compile_sources'", "org/jruby/RubyArray.java:2580:in map'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/compiler.rb:14:in compile_sources'", "org/logstash/execution/AbstractPipelineExt.java:161:in initialize'", "org/logstash/execution/JavaBasePipelineExt.java:47:in initialize'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/java_pipeline.rb:27:in initialize'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/pipeline_action/create.rb:36:in execute'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/agent.rb:326:in block in converge_state'"]}

[INFO ] 2020-02-27 09:10:44.058 [LogStash::Runner] runner - Logstash shut down.
i copied in the config folder all the other config files in /etc/logstash/conf.d also, and tested each of them with
/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash --config.test_and_exit -f /usr/share/logstash/config/configfile.conf
resulting all of them OK.
Since it seems an easy configuration, i find weird that logstash shuts down after 5 seconds. If i run logstash throught service logstash start the service run normally but doesn't do the job, can anybody help me?
