Hi @IMagalashvili - Welcome to our community forums!

From the Heartbeat logs you provided: ` ERROR instance/beat.go:933 Exiting: data path already locked by another beat`. This means that there is another instance of Heartbeat running. I am guessing that you are already running Heartbeat [as a service](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/heartbeat/current/running-with-systemd.html#running-with-systemd). So before running Heartbeat with command line, you may want to stop the Heartbeat service or stop other Hearbeat instances that may be running on your system.

I hope that helps.

Thank you for replay!

I found the issue, there was an error in .yml file, which I found with "heartbeat test config /etc/heartbeat/heartbeat.yml" command. This was an issue, the data was not receive.
