Why wildcard doesnt working in filebeat? I read all logstash's article about PATH and GLOB (not working too even GLOB constructor is valid) and recursive\_glob.enabled: true and it doesnt working for me!!! Why???? Please help P.S. Filebeat successfully started with that input section, but not working. filebeat.inputs: - type: log enabled: true recursive\_glob.enabled: true paths: - C:\project-project\Logs\ \* \ \* errors.log tags: ["project"] ---
