I've encountered strange behavior of Lostash. I have a configuration that reads files locally on the server, then analyzes them and then poisons them into elastic. When I test the config everything works for me

`/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash -f /etc/logstash/conf.d/pipelines/cdr-cucm/cdr_cucm_sec.conf --verbose`

but once i use this config in /etc/logstash/pipelines.yml

```auto
- pipeline.id: cdr-cucm-sec-pipe
  path.config: "/etc/logstash/conf.d/pipelines/cdr-cucm/cdr_cucm_sec.conf"

```

he feels like he's being ignored.  
Please help me figure this out, thanks in advance.

Does anyone have any idea about this why it doesn't work? there is no error information in the logs.

I will answer my own question. The problem was connected by the rights from whom the test config and pipeline were launched. Rights cmod -R 777 is not a guarantee of success. You need to edit and say the appropriate group.
