Problem when doing multiple file inputs

Description

I have a conf file which takes in two files of two types:

It doesnt seem to pick up any added lines to either file when i have both files being listened to. If i comment out one file input it works fine and picks up line change immediateley and tries to parse them as expected.
Am i doing something dumb here. Or do i need to manage multiple files in a different way.

My whole file code is attached below

Hi can you please let me know that when you give a file input does it works fine? how did you do that in my case it gives a error.
my input in config is
file {
type => "syslog"

  1. Wildcards work, here
    path => [ "/var/log/*.log", "/var/log/messages", "/var/log/syslog" ]
    }
    }

The error is coming

D:\Elasticsearchproject\logstash>java -jar logstash-1.2.2-flatjar.jar agent -f l
