If I'm reading this right your saying that you did Rsyslog->Elasticsearch->gui?

I've tried installing the rpm on centos and it installs but apparently it 
doesn't come with a config file and so the daemon starts it errors out in the 
logs and just shuts down after that.

Today I've setup my central rsyslog server to replay the logs via omudpspoof to 
a logstash server -> ES.  It's already indexing about twice as much as just 
rsyslog -> ES was using the recipe in the first link below, and I haven't even 
begun to dig into the scads of plugins available for logstash. 

http://blog.sematext.com/2013/07/01/recipe-rsyslog-elasticsearch-kibana/ is a 
good place to start, although you can replace the omelasticsearch OM with 
omudpspoof if you want to do logstash. 

http://cookbook.logstash.net/recipes/rsyslog-agent/ is a good place to start 
with rsyslog -> logstash, although I did UDP instead of TCP, and used the 
elasticsearch output module instead of stdout, which is documented here:  
http://cookbook.logstash.net/recipes/central-syslog/ 

Good luck to you!  Those three links is basically all I needed, and should set 
you down the right path, regardless of how your path differs from mine ;)
