Hi Imtiaz, While running the logstash command I am getting an error like : java.IllegalStateException. Can you please help me to solve it. It is related to jdk version? I am using jdk 1.8.0_215
hi i am getting below error and all data is not indexing org.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchParseException: failed to parse date field [-764144999999] with format [epoch_millis]: [failed to parse date field [-764144999999] with format [epoch_millis]]
I was able to get all the data into elastic search and mimic all your steps, but I'm having trouble with elasticsearch not recognizing the date columns. When trying to setup a date range or historgram in a visualization, it doesn't recognize the date columns as date, but instead string as you stated in the beginning.
Hi Imtiaz, While running the logstash command with the config file, I am getting the following error: warning: ignoring JAVA_OPTS= -Xms1g -Xmx1g -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=75 -XX:+UseCMSInitiatingOccupancyOnly -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Djruby.compile.invokedynamic=true -Djruby.jit.threshold=0 -Djruby.regexp.interruptible=true -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom -Dlog4j2.isThreadContextMapInheritable=true ; pass JVM parameters via LS_JAVA_OPTS Any idea how to tackle this.
whether to make the visualization automatically using the script. so when having a lot of data do not need to make visualization one by one. if you can how the example script to create the visualization. thank you
@imtiaz : Excellant explannation, please do provide the links to previous lectures, couldnt find it. And pplease do a video on kibana visualization for maps
"pipeline has started successfully " this msg is printed in the command prompt but it doesnt shows the data which is loaded in the csv file....what must be issue in that ......help me with it
how to read more than 3 logs file from same server and create different index for the diff file ?I have tried with type but it is not working with more than 2 files .
Hello imtiaz, Nice tutorial for beginner level. I have a query, the cars data is not going to elastic search. I have did same configuration as per windows. In the log file, pipeline started and logstash is also properly running, but data is not going Can you please help or anyone ? Bye, thanks and regards
.config Write the file in noted and name your file with a .config extension and in the save as type box select all files (otherwise it will save as a .txt
it says something is wrong with your configuration I m using windows for this and have followed your steps there is an error saying "block in initialize" what does this mean Also it says unknown setting 'seperator' for csv failed to execute action
putting the wrong path in your config file usually causes this. Otherwise try creating a copy of the file under a different name and using that, or restarting ES and kibana.

windows users if logstash is not working, set sincedb_path='nul' ; if config file is unable to be read, place it in logstash/bin and use "logstash -f logstash_cars.conf" in cmd, in the bin directory
Made the right choice to watch these videos on ELK, weldone man. Great video, simplified and clear explanation. Thanks a million
still valid 2 years later! I just want to add - sincedb_path => "/dev/null" was causing me error and I removed it to get rid of the error
A mí me funcionó con eso
where you in linux? that path is only suitable for linux
@@ander.carrera I think it is. I was in linux too
Can you make a Playlist with ELK stack lessons ? because i cant find all your vids..

Once the data is indexed into Kibana, is it persistent after Logstash is closed? Through reboots?

Hello imtiaz,
Nice tutorial for beginner level. I have a query, the cars data is not going to elastic search. I have did same configuration as per windows. In the log file, pipeline started and logstash is also properly running, but data is not going

same problem,
if u manage to solve it please tell me :)
the price_eur column was defined as a float in the logstash configuration file but kibana is showing it as Number, Why so?
Did you use the config he went over in the video? If so it was defined as an integer using mutate {convert => ["price_eur", "integer"] }
What is the extension of the config file-XMl? I am not able to run this configuration file
.config Write the file in noted and name your file with a .config extension and in the save as type box select all files (otherwise it will save as a .txt
it says something is wrong with your configuration I m using windows for this and have followed your steps
there is an error saying "block in initialize" what does this mean

Pakka explaination! Thanks a lot
Logstash not executing after pipeline started.
It's just displaying the following output:
Settings: Default pipeline workers: 4
Pipeline main started
putting the wrong path in your config file usually causes this. Otherwise try creating a copy of the file under a different name and using that, or restarting ES and kibana.
you can also create a new file by heading the data you intend to use and try that
Do u used below thing in output section....
Stdout {}
its work for me, many thanks
