After adding below configuration to logstash.yml for Netflow module, Logstash stops listen ports for files from conf.d directory.

```
modules:
- name: netflow
  var.elasticsearch.hosts: "localhost:9200"
  var.input.udp.port: 2055
  var.kibana.host: "localhost:5601"

```

In logs i can see below message:

```
[2019-04-22T04:51:45,804][WARN][logstash.config.source.multilocal] Ignoring the 'pipelines.yml' file because modules or command line options are specified
```

It works if I comment lines for netflow in logstash.yml, start logstash service then run netflow.var.input.udp.port=2055  
But this does not persist reboot.

Can anybody help with this issue?
