Good morning, I am trying to install filebeat on debian with the deb file. The problem is that i have misconfigured it, so i tried to uninstall it.
After the second installation i encountered a problem: it does not download the config files anymore, e.g. i go to /etc/filebeat
there is no more filebeat.yml but only modules.d which is an empty directory instead of containing all modules.
i installed it with
curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats/filebeat/filebeat-8.4.1-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i filebeat-8.4.1-amd64.deb
and uninstalled with
sudo dpkg -r filebeat
do you know why this happens? is there any way to have the right configuration back?
thanks
