Unable to start Kinesis agent

Question

when I try to start kinesis agent, sudo service aws-kinesis-agent start. Received below error.

Job for aws-kinesis-agent.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status aws-kinesis-agent.service" and "journalctl -xeu aws-kinesis-agent.service" for details.

where do I check the error logs. Please help in resolving this.

Hello Theerthendra,

Please check the following file location where the agent activity is logged: "/var/log/aws-kinesis-agent/aws-kinesis-agent.log"

This is the default location for the Kinesis agent logs, but it may vary depending on your specific deployment. [here](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/streams/latest/dev/writing-with-agents.html#config-start)

Something to note is making sure the [Prerequisites](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/streams/latest/dev/writing-with-agents.html#prereqs) are completed before installing the agent.

Please share a sanitized details of the logs once you have it to give us more insight.
