I get this error. Disabled logging for pod due to invalid configmap. forward is not a supported output plugin. Please fix the logging configmap

This is my ConfigMap kind: ConfigMap apiVersion: v1 metadata: name: aws-logging namespace: aws-observability data: flb_log_cw: "false" # Set to true to ship Fluent Bit process logs to CloudWatch. output.conf: | [OUTPUT] Name forward Match kube.* Host fluentd-aggregator.default.svc.cluster.local Port 24224
