Elastic Stack Logstash

Hello,
I'm use logstash for parser some postgress log's. But my filter section says syntax error:

[2019-07-25T00:08:47,536][INFO ][logstash.runner          ] Starting Logstash {"logstash.version"=>"6.8.1"}

And my setting is:

input {
  file {
    path => "/var/lib/pgsql/9.6/data/pg_log/postgresql.log"
    start_position => "beginning"
  }
}


filter {
  grok {
        patterns_dir => ["/etc/logstash/patterns"]
        match => [ "message" => "%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601:log_timestamp} %{WORD:Timezone} %{SYSLOGHOST:source} %{GREEDYDATA:message}"  ]
    }
}


output {
  elasticsearch {
    hosts => ["http://192.168.0.20:9200"]
    index => "pgsql-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
    }
    stdout {
        codec => "rubydebug"
   }
}

don't see the error -_- . ¿can you help me?

Thanks.

The match statement in your grok filter should have curly braces around the message part. See the documentation for an example.

logstash is fairly flexible about allowing arrays where it expects hashes and vice versa, but if you use an array (i.e. square brackets) then you must use comma, not =>, as a separator. This should be

match => { "message" => "...
