logstash service dying after a few minutes

Post by vmesquita »

Hello!

The logstash service in our Log Server install keeps dying a few minutes after it's restarted. How can we debug what's happening?

The best place to start would be sharing the contents of /var/log/logstash/logstash.log

There was a file missing in one of the servers, and I was able to track it down using this logfile. Thanks.
