Hi there,  
i am working to parse a log file that contains message with one line and multiline like below :

```
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
        at com.example.myproject.Book.getTitle(Book.java:16)
        at com.example.myproject.Author.getBookTitles(Author.java:25)
        at com.example.myproject.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:14).

```

so i use multiline plugin but doesn't work.i get this error:

```
Cannot create pipeline {:reason=>"non reloadable pipeline"}
Unable to reload configuration because it does not support dynamic reloading {:pipeline_id=>"main", :plugins=>[LogStash::Inputs::Stdin]}

```

this is my pipeline.conf:

```
input {
        file {
        path => "c:/logstash.log"
        start_position => "beginning"
        }
    stdin {
    codec => multiline {
      pattern => "^\s"
      what => "previous"
    }
  }
}
filter {
grok{
	  match => { "message" => "%{TIME:timestamp} %{LOGLEVEL:LEVEL} %{GREEDYDATA:errormsg}" }
	}
}
output {
if	"ERROR" in [LEVEL]
{
elasticsearch {
  hosts=>"localhost:9200"
  }
  }
stdout { codec => rubydebug }
}

```

Highly appreciate your help.

Do you really get this error message when restarting Logstash?

Thank you for your answer.  
that what i get:

`Logstash is not able to start since configuration auto reloading was enabled but the configuration contains plugins that don't support it. Quitting... {:pipeline_id=>"main", :plugins=>[LogStash::Inputs::Stdin]}`

AFAICT Logstash doesn't enable automatic config reloading by default, indicating that you've enabled that option yourself. Don't do that?
