#logstash

hi all, I am trying to set up logstash-forwarder on ubuntu 14.04 - using packages.elasticsearch.org/logstashforwarder/de... stable main it seems to install fine, but when I try to start the service nothing seems to happen - where can I find more info about what it's doing

hm is everyone asleep? :)

ham1, I'm having a similar problem. Does it work when you start it manually? My install doesn't seem to parse the conf file when I start it with the init script.

I think I've just figured it out - i started it manually and saw my keys weren't in the right place

so I've moved them and it's working now :D

why doesn't it log the output somewhere when you start as a service.. :/

anyway, bed time!

hey - I cant anymore file bugs on JIRA. (no create issue button) is that temporarily turned off or is that permission somehow lost?

maybe its a hint for me to go to bed

nah, too early

I noticed that the build-in web server of logstash does corrupt binary (png) files on windows because the file mode does not specify "b" to avoid crlf transalation. However I think instead of adding "b" it is faster to use sinatra's send_file. I am just not sure if this would work with jar resources?

btw, why is "elasticsearch-release" bot commenting all pull requests with "Can one of the admins verify this patch?" is this to trigger some mail?

(or does this mean it will not start a jenkins verify build for some reasons?)
