Winlogbeat doesn't connect to logstash server but filebeat does

Elastic Stack Beats
1

When I run winlogbeat I get this Error
ERROR pipeline/output.go:100 Failed to connect to backoff(async(tcp://l92.168.0.86:5044)): lookup 192.168.0.86: no such host

which is kinda weird since
Test-NetConnection 192.168.0.86 -Port 5044 works totally fine and I also can connect to kibana which runs on the same server

My logstash config file looks like this
> input {

beats {
    port => "5044"
    host => "192.168.0.86"
}
}

output {
stdout { codec => rubydebug }
}

I don't really understand what I am doing wrong. I start logstash with sudo bin/logstash -f /etc/logstash/conf.d/first-pipeline.conf --config.reload.automatic
my winlogbeat output looks like this

output.logstash:
  # The Logstash hosts
  hosts: ["l92.168.0.86:5044"]

Edit:
I now started filebeat with almost the same confidurations and it works

Two suggestions:

  1. Sorry this may be a stupid suggestion but the number 1 in the IP address in output.logstash, looks like a lower case "L", maybe syntax issue on the post?
  2. Did you try to test the connection using:
    winlogbeat.exe test connection
    If it's not connecting it will fail here
