I am trying to use logstash 5.5 for analyzing archived (.gz) files generating every minute. Each.gz file contains csv file in it. My .conf file looks like below:
input {
file {
type => "gzip"
path => [ “C:\data*.gz” ]
start_position => "beginning"
sincedb_path=> "gzip"
codec => gzip_lines
}
}
filter {
csv {
separator => ","
columns => [“COL1”,“COL2”,“COL3”,“COL4”,“COL5”,“COL6”,“COL7”]
}
}
output {
elasticsearch {
hosts => "localhost:9200"
index => "mydata"
document_type => “zipdata”
}
stdout {}
}
Initially I was getting error for missing gzip_lines plugin. So, I installed it. After installing this plugin, I can see that logstash says “Succesfully started Logstash API endpoint” but nothing get indexed. I do not see any indexing of data in elasticsearch in logstash logs. When I try to get the index in Kibana, it is not available there. It means that logstash is not putting data in elasticsearch.
May be I am using wrong configuration. Please suggest, what is the correct way of doing this?

input {
file {
path => "/home/blusapphire/padma/sampledata.csv"
start_position => "beginning"
}
}
filter {
csv {
columns => [ "First_Name", "Last_Name", "Age", "Salary", "Emailid", "Gender" ]
}
}
output {
elasticsearch {

}
}
This my logstash config file, and when running logstash file I'm not seeing data (which is given csv) in Elasticsearch, and index is not creating, Is there any mistake in configuration?
Based on your screenshot, it is clear that logstash has noticed your file. To get logstash to feel it is making "first contact" with the file, try:
shutdown logstash
delete the since_db file
start up logstash
Alternatively, move the file outside the monitored folder, execute the above steps and then drop the file in.
Can you also confirm that your set up works with other files - just in case?
I'm running logstash where the output is set to elasticsearch on my localhost. However, when I open up elasticsearch, it appears that it did not receive any data from logstash. Logstash parses the csv file correctly, as I can see by the output in the terminal.
I've tried modifying the conf file, but the problem remains. The conf file is below
input {
file {
path => "/Users/kevinliu/Desktop/logstash_tutorial/gg.csv"
start_position => "beginning"
sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
}
}
filter {
csv {
separator => ","
columns => ["name","price","unit","url"]
}
}
output {
elasticsearch {
hosts => "localhost"
index => "gg-prices"
}
stdout {}
}
When I access localhost:9200/ I just see the default " "You Know, for Search" display/message from elasticsearch.
I have a CSV file with customer addresses. I have also an Elasticsearch index with my own addresses. I use Logstash as tool to import the CSV file. I'd like to use a logstash filter to check in my index if the customer address already exists. All I found is the default elasticsearch filter ("Copies fields from previous log events in Elasticsearch to current events") which doesn't look the correct one to solve my problem. Does another filter exist for my problem?
Here my configuration file so far:
input {
file {
path => "C:/import/Logstash/customer.CSV"
start_position => "beginning"
sincedb_path => "NUL"
}
}
filter {
csv {
columns => [
"Customer",
"City",
"Address",
"State",
"Postal Code"
]
separator => ";"
}
}
output {
elasticsearch {
hosts => [ "localhost:9200" ]
index => "customer-unmatched"
}
stdout{}
}
You don't normally have access to the data in Elasticsearch while processing your Logstash event. Consider using a pipeline on an Ingest node
I want to send logs from different location to elasticsearch using logstash conf file.
input {
file
{
path => "C:/Users/611166850/Desktop/logstash-5.0.2/logstash-5.0.2/logs/logs/ce.log"
type => "CE"
start_position => "beginning"
}
file
{
path => "C:/Users/611166850/Desktop/logstash-5.0.2/logstash-5.0.2/logs/logs/spovp.log"
type => "SP"
start_position => "beginning"
}
file
{
path => "C:/Users/611166850/Desktop/logstash-5.0.2/logstash-5.0.2/logs/logs/ovpportal_log"
type => "OVP"
start_position => "beginning"
}
}
output {
elasticsearch {
action => "index"
hosts => "localhost:9200"
index => "multiple"
codec => json
workers => 1
}
}
This is the config file I use, but Kibana is not recognising this index. Can someone help with this
Thanks in advance ,Rashmi
Check logstash's log file for errors.(maybe you'r config file is not correct)
Also search ES directly for preferred index, maybe problem is not Kibana, and you don't have any index with this name.
try starting logstash in debug mode to see if there are any logs in it.
you can also try to get the logstash out put to a file on local system rather than directly sending it to the elasticsearch. uncomment block as per your requirement
# block-1
# if "_grokparsefailure" not in [tags] {
# stdout {
# codec => rubydebug { metadata => true }
# }
# }
# block-2
# if "_grokparsefailure" not in [tags] {
# file {
# path => "/tmp/out-try1.logstash"
# }
# }
so by any of these methods you can get the output to console or to a file. comment _grokparsefailure part in case you don't see any output in file.
Note: in kibana default indices have #timestamp in their fields so check
1. if kibana is able to recognize the index if you unckeck the checkbox on page where you create new index
2. if your logs are properly parsed. if not you need to work out with grok filters with pattern matching your logs or create grok filters
all elasticsearch indices are visible on http://elasticsearch-ip:9200/_cat/indices?v (your elasticsearch ip) so try that too. share what you find
I begin with logstash and ElasticSearch and I would like to index .pdf or .doc file type in ElasticSearch via logstash.
I configured logstash using the codec multiline to get my file in a single message in ElasticSearch. Below is my configuration file:
input {
file {
path => "D:/BaseCV/*"
codec => multiline {
# Grok pattern names are valid! :)
pattern => ""
what => "previous"
}
}
}
output {
stdout {
codec => "rubydebug"
}
elasticsearch {
hosts => "localhost"
index => "cvindex"
document_type => "file"
}
}
At the start of logstash the first file I add, I recovered in ElasticSearch in one message, but the following are spread over several messages. I wish I had the correspondence : 1 file = 1 message.
Is this possible ? What should I change my setup to solve the problem ?
Thank you for your feedback.
