Logstash service starting then stopping immediately .conf error #220

Closed ObiH15 closed 9 years ago

ObiH15 commented 9 years ago

When starting the logstash service it starts but stops running in about 3 seconds. I get the following error message in the logs: :message=>"Error: Expected one of #, input, filter, output at line 65, column 1 :message=>"You may be interested in the '--configtest' flag which you can\nuse to validate logstash's configuration before you choose\nto restart a running system."}

We have used the --config test and the configuration is ok.

Any idea why this is happening? Was running fine previously with the same .conf....

I don't mean to sound blunt, but what makes you believe it to be a Log Courier issue? Might be best reported in the logstash repository.

I'll close this as it looks to be a logstash problem with faulty conf file.
