'logstash settings are invalid

I'am trying to start logstash on windows with a custom conf file but I get always the same error : Your settings are invalid. Reason: Setting "" doesn't exist. Please check if you haven't made a typo.

this is my conf:

input {
   file {   
      type => "syslog"
      path => "C:/log/log.log"
   }
}

output {
  stdout { codec => rubydebug }
  elasticsearch { 
    hosts => ["localhost:9200"] 
    index =>"myindex"
  }
}

I hope you are using windows. Hence , in the configuration replace the slash mentioned below

path => "C:\log\log.log"

then execute the below command to verify you configuration is syntactically correct

logstash --config.test_and_exit -f "<YOUR-FILENAME-ALONG-WITH-FILEPATH"

This would give us conclusion whether it is wrong with logstash configuration or with your setup.

Keep posted with updates!!! Thanks
