Logstash configuration works fine when output is tested with output { stdout { codec =\> rubydebug } } when sent to ES it errors out. `input { file { path =\> "/opt/tomcat/logs/ds.log" start\_position =\> "beginning" type =\> "ds" codec =\> multiline { pattern =\> "^%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601}" negate =\> true what =\> "previous" } } } filter { if [type] == "ds" { mutate { gsub =\> ["message", "r", ""] } grok { match =\> { "message" =\> [ "^%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtimestamp},%{INT:millis} %{WORD:loglevel} [%{GREEDYDATA:thread}] %{GREEDYDATA:message}%{SPACE} - %{GREEDYDATA:exceptionmessage}", "^%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:logtimestamp},%{INT:millis} %{WORD:loglevel} [%{GREEDYDATA:thread}] [%{DATA:status}] %{GREEDYDATA:message}%{SPACE} - %{GREEDYDATA:exceptionmessage}" ] overwrite =\> ["message"] } } ``` date { match => ["logtimetimestamp" , "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS"] } } ``` } output { amazon\_es { hosts =\>
