> [@da\_Teng](#): > > second argument you gave me wasa Array, I require a Hash That's why. What version are you on? I can't see a `topics` in the docs [Kafka input plugin | Logstash Reference [8.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-kafka.html) ---

It seems the configuration for the Kafka input plugin has changed between Logstash 2.x and Logstash 5.0, and the config you have specified seems to be according to the [Logstash 5.0 specification](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/5.0/plugins-inputs-kafka.html). Which version of Logstash are you using? ---

Hi,warkolm! I use logstash-5.0.0-alpha5.You can see this document and you will find `topics` [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/5.0/plugins-inputs-kafka.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/5.0/plugins-inputs-kafka.html) ---

I suspect this is a bug in the elasticsearch output. The second to last stackframe comes from > and that line should probably be ``` submit_actions.each {|action| @logger.error("Action", :action => action) } ``` instead. ---

This log message just states that a particular action is being retried. _Why_ it's being retried (that is, why it failed the first time) is logged elsewhere. ---
