@P-pri please share the contents for your fluent-bit config.

It looks like you're using YAML in quite an old version of Fluent Bit, I would step up to the latest to verify it is still an issue.
The other thing it could be is unable to find an include file.

 [config] forward: unknown configuration property 'tls_verify'

try tls.verify (with a dot)

[patrick-stephens]

Please step up version, 2.2.1 is very old and has different YAML syntax.

[P-pri]

How do we do it @patrick-stephens , steps please !

[P-pri]

[root@fbim-dev1lldrd~]# fluent-bit --version
Fluent Bit v1.6.10
[root@fbim-dev1lldrd ~]#
The version which is already present in my machine

Installation guides are here: https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual/installation/getting-started-with-fluent-bit

If it's Linux then the repositories can upgrade it for you like any other package.

1.6 will definitely not work for YAML :)
