What version of Graylog are you running? Collectors have been depreciated for managing via sidecars…

I wish I could help but the version is older than even what I originally installed. The best I can give you is a pointer to docs: [Graylog Collector (deprecated) — Graylog 2.4.6 documentation](https://docs.graylog.org/en/2.4/pages/collector.html). When you have time you should shift to side-cars… even better upgrade to the most recent version of Graylog which is 4.1 at the moment…

@RalfThomas I’ll second @tmacgbay’s suggestion. 2.4 is nearly 4 years old at this point, is EOL and receives 0 updates, security fixes, or bug fixes. There’s been a lot that’s changed in the intervening time, and if the issue ends up being related to the version you’re on, the recommendation would be to upgrade to a non-EOL version of Graylog.
