- Fields are not indexed or usable in Kibana visualizations
- Filebeat isn’t shipping the last line of a file
- Filebeat keeps open file handlers of deleted files for a long time
- Filebeat uses too much bandwidth
- Error loading config file
- Found unexpected or unknown characters
- Logstash connection doesn’t work
- Publishing to Logstash fails with "connection reset by peer" message
- @metadata is missing in Logstash
- Not sure whether to use Logstash or Beats
