I am currently working on a windows 2016, elastic / kibana / logstash 6.5.4

I keep getting this but no errors:

logstash.instrument.periodicpoller.cgroup] One or more required cgroup files or directories not found: /proc/self/cgroup, /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct, /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu  
logstash.instrument.periodicpoller.jvm] collector name {:name=\>"ParNew"}  
logstash.instrument.periodicpoller.jvm] collector name {:name=\>"ConcurrentMarkSweep"}

I have no data being sent to Kibana, anyone see this before?

These are not errors, they are DEBUG messages and are normal. What does your configuration look like?

I know this is not an error, but data is not getting being published:

CONF

input {  
file {  
path =\> "C:\Users\XXX\XXX\elkhart.csv"  
start\_position =\> "beginning"  
sincedb\_path =\> "nul"

```
}

```

}

filter {  
csv {  
separator =\> ","  
columns =\> ["ComputerName", "UserName", "Processor", "Memory", "OperatingSystem", "Bitness", "OfficeVersion", "County", "CreatedOn"]

```
  # convert => {
   # "NameID" => "integer"
    # "PartyID" => "integer"
   # }
    remove_field => ["CreatedOn"]
}

```

}

output {

```
elasticsearch {
    hosts => ["http://localhost:9200"]

    index => "ElkHartTest"
	
}
stdout { codec => dots }

```

}

Use forward slash in the path option for the file input.
