Getting: No config files found in path {:path=\>"/iappl/log\_conf/current/configs/cust/logstash.conf"}

pipelines.yml:

- pipeline.id: scania  
path.config: "/iappl/log\_conf/current/configs/cust/logstash.conf"  
pipeline.workers: 1

And when I run a --config.test\_and\_exit on that file it comes back OK.

I am running logstash as a service with following Exec script:

ExecStart=/iappl/logstash/bin/logstash "--path.settings" "/iappl/logstash/config"

I have tried changing the file permissions and I still get the same error.

This is a RHEL server.

Any help would be great.

I'm going to close this.... Note to self: directories have to have the executable flag set for anyone using it.
