## I am trying to send logs to logstash using filebeats On local machine:

--filebeats  
--logstash  
--kibana

## On server

--elastcisearch

I ran filebeat and logstash on two terminals on my local machine:

1. ran logstash - bin/logstash -f logstash.conf
2. in another console ran - sudo ./filebeat -e -v -c filebeat.yml

filbeat.yml:

* * *

```
filebeat.prospectors:

- input_type: log

  paths:
    - /home/sweety/Downloads/logstash-5.4.1/bin/*.log
----------------------------- Logstash output --------------------------------
output.logstash:
  # The Logstash hosts
  hosts: ["127.0.0.1:5044"]

```

logstash.conf

* * *

```
input { 
beats { 
    port => 5044
  }
 }
output {
  elasticsearch { hosts => ["xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:9200"] }
  stdout { codec => rubydebug }
}

```

when I ran both filebat and logstash I'm getting  
logstash output:

 ![logstash](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/5/c52ca48cd51334e32e5d351ad650bf32f474887a.png)

Filebeat output

 ![filebeat](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/b/3/b314d2c443f04ccc52570ec34cec8886badea7ba.png)

And when I do http:xxx.xx.xxx:9200/\_cat/indices  
am not able to see indices in elasticsearch

So I did lot of research on error"Exception: org.logstash.beats.BeatsParser$InvalidFrameProtocolException: Invalid Frame Type, received: 69," but could not able figure it

Could anyone help?

Thanks!
