So I have a java program which writes a dummy log to a file dummyLog.log every second.
log.error("127.23.12.331 - - [17/May/2015:10:05:03 +0000] \"GET /presentations/logstash-monitorama-2013");
My logstash configuration file :
input {
file {
path => "path to the dummyLog.log"
type => "application"
sincedb_path => "...application.db"
}
}
filter {
}
output {
amazon_es {
hosts => ["<aws es endpoint>"]
region => "us-east-1"
index => "something"
}
}
My aws elasticsearch cluster's access policy is open to all right now without any restrictions.
I checked "dummyLog.log" and logs are being written to it at every second but I can see nothing being recieved by elasticsearch and nothing comes on kibana. I checked the logstash.log file and it is completely empty.
What am I doing wrong?
