Error running Telegraf agent. Parsing error

Telegraf
1

I am trying to install Telegraf agents(v@ 1.11.1) on a Linux Host. I get a parse error as below.

telegraf: 2019-12-16T06:12:31Z I! Starting Telegraf 1.11.1
telegraf: 2019-12-16T06:12:31Z E! [telegraf] Error running agent: Error parsing /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf, line 48: invalid syntax
systemd: telegraf.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
systemd: Unit telegraf.service entered failed state.
systemd: telegraf.service failed.
systemd: telegraf.service holdoff time over, scheduling restart.
systemd: Stopped The plugin-driven server agent for reporting metrics into InfluxDB.
systemd: Started The plugin-driven server agent for reporting metrics into InfluxDB.

The telegraf config file is as follows;

47  [[inputs.procstat]]
48  pattern = "bin\/bash (.*)myservice.sh"
49
50  [inputs.procstat.tags]
51  service_name = "MyService"

Is there any special escape/masking character for this configuration?

Below is the output for the pgrep command

$ pgrep -lf “bin/bash (.*)myservice.sh”
12345 /bin/bash ./apps/myapp-new/myservice/bin/myservice.sh --environment myapp-new -r --webservice --port xxxxx --logdir /bigdatanew/projects/myprojects/Test/ABC/DE/FQ//logs

I don’t think you need to escape the forward slash, I’d remove it.
