Double check the path of your input file. It's most likely not doing anything since there may be a typo in the the path and it cannot find the file.

Can you try changing the sincedb\_path parameter value in the input filter to a valid windows path/file reference?  
For example:  
`sincedb_path => "C:\csv_sincedb"`
