Exactly same happened for me, it was not monitoring the log files with wildcard in the path
[monitor://D:\applications\jee\*\logs]
whitelist = \.log.*$|\.txt.*$|\.traceout.*$
crcSalt = <SOURCE>
disabled = false
followTail = false
ignoreOlderThan = 7d
index = websphere
08-17-2016 14:42:00.982 +1000 INFO TailingProcessor - Parsing configuration stanza: monitor://D:\applications\jee*\logs.
08-17-2016 14:42:00.982 +1000 INFO TailingProcessor - Adding watch on path: D:\applications\jee.
But it started working when I added * at the end 🙂
[monitor://D:\applications\jee\*\logs\*]
whitelist = \.log.*$|\.txt.*$|\.traceout.*$
crcSalt = <SOURCE>
disabled = false
