Original issue: #1451.
Issue:
the in_tail plugin tries to tail directories when the /**/* file path is used.
Description:
There is a directory which contains subdirectories. These subdirectories can contain log files without extension. The goal is to let fluentd tail all files that it can find in the subdirectories.
The best way to do it is to set the path plugin parameter = /**/*, but the plugin doesn't distinguish files from directories and tries to tails directories that causes an io exception.
Fix description:
This fix includes removing all the directories from the list of file objects that fluentd finds according to the given path parameter.
