Hello All,  
Thanks in advance.  
We have succesfully sending the data to the [Logz.io](http://Logz.io) console via custom application.  
There was a specific request to add one more path in addition to the existing path. The logs that are present in the new path is not sending any data to the [Logz.io](http://Logz.io).

Existing log file path: \QWEFY/#QWEFY/HUWA\_LOG/BLOCK/S000/_/_.txt  
New log file path: \QWEFY/#QWEFY/BLOCK\_LOG/BLOCK/S000/_/_.txt

The pipeline.conf file as shown below. please help me.

input {  
http {  
codec =\> json\_lines  
port =\> 4503  
user =\> "${BLOCK\_CONDITION\_USER\_STAGING}"  
password =\> "${BLOCK\_CONDITION\_PASSWORD\_STAGING}"  
ssl =\> false  
}  
file {  
codec =\> json  
path =\> ["\QWEFY/#QWEFY/HUWA\_LOG/BLOCK/S000/_/_.txt","\QWEFY/#QWEFY/BLOCK\_LOG/BLOCK/S000/_/_.txt"]   
start\_position =\> "beginning"  
sincedb\_path =\> "D:/FileShippers/logstash-7.16.1\_BLOCK/sincedb/S000/.sincedb"  
sincedb\_clean\_after =\> "2"

}  
}

What do you have in the logstash log files for the file input when you start logstash?

Also, is anything being collected at all?

`\QWEFY/#QWEFY/HUWA_LOG/BLOCK/S000//.txt` I would expet to have a wildcard before `.txt` so the logs can be collected.

How are you running Logstash? Did you check the permissions for the new path? The user running logstash must have permissions to it.
