New X-Pack Installation

All,

I'm brand new to ELK. I got it up and running on a linux installation and currently I have one windows server sending it's logs to elasticsearch. I decided to install the X-Pack and since doing that logs are not being transmitted.

I'm a little unsure about what configuration changes I likely need to make. Can someone point me in the right direction? Do I need to alter kibana, elasticsearch and/or logstash yml files? Here's an example of what i'm seeing in my winlogbeat log.

You will need to do the Logstash step here https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/logstash.html

I apologize for not responding. I was aboe to resolve this issue.

Thanks!
