Unable to push the logs from the local machine using Filebeat to local elastic search instance

Elastic Stack Beats

Hi,
I have installed filebeat and elastic search successfully. I configured the local log file path in the filebeats.yml and output to elastic search. I am not seeing any error in filebeat log but the logs are not pushed nothing logged in the logger.

filebeat.inputs:

Each - is an input. Most options can be set at the input level, so

you can use different inputs for various configurations.

Below are the input specific configurations.

  • type: log

    Change to true to enable this input configuration.

    enabled: false

    Paths that should be crawled and fetched. Glob based paths.

    paths:

    • C:\Users\vk023282\ingestor\logs\archived*

filebeat.config.modules:

Glob pattern for configuration loading

path: ${path.config}/modules.d/*.yml

Set to true to enable config reloading

reload.enabled: false

Period on which files under path should be checked for changes

#reload.period: 10s

#==================== Elasticsearch template setting ==========================

setup.template.settings:
index.number_of_shards: 1
#index.codec: best_compression
#_source.enabled: false

output.elasticsearch:

Array of hosts to connect to.

hosts: ["localhost:9200"]

Please properly format logs and configs using the </>-Button.

Looks like you have no input enabled/configured.
