-----------------------------------------
Hi Rosepriya,
Flume does write to the log stating that the agent was not found. I just ran :
./flume-ng agent -n random -f ~/Desktop/conf_files/conf1 -c ../conf/
with conf:
host2.sources = src1 src2
host2.sinks = sink2 sink1
host2.channels = ch2 ch1
host2.sinkgroups = sg1
host2.sources.src2.type = seq
host2.sources.src2.channels = ch1 ch2
host2.sources.src1.type = seq
host2.sources.src1.channels = ch2 ch1
host2.sinks.sink1.type = logger
host2.sinks.sink1.channel = ch1
host2.channels.ch1.type=memory
host2.channels.ch2.type=memory
host2.sinks.sink2.port = 25001
host2.sinks.sink2.type = avro
host2.sinks.sink2.hostname = localhost
host2.sinks.sink2.channel = ch2
host2.sinkgroups.sg1.sinks = sink1 sink2
host2.sinkgroups.sg1.processor.type = failover
host2.sinkgroups.sg1.processor.priority.sink1 = 1
host2.sinkgroups.sg1.processor.priority.sink2 = 2

The log file had this:

I am not sure how you are seeing this error. Could you try pulling in the
latest sources and trying again?
