First time LogStash install and I can't get it to run due to permissions issues that I 'm not understanding.
Started by complaining about /usr/share/logstash/data not being writable so I fixed that, then ./data/queue so I fixed that. Now it's complaining about a .lock file in the logstash directory. Logstash directory is owned by logstash, as is everything in it. Did a chmod 777 on the Logstash directory to no avail. I'm not sure why it's not happy. Ideas?
