Error generating a logstash image

Elastic Stack Logstash
1

Freshman on elastic stack here. I'm trying to generate a logstash image with the following Dockerfile:

FROM docker.elastic.co/logstash/logstash:8.1.0

RUN rm -f /usr/share/logstash/pipeline/logstash.conf && \
    bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-filter-translate

it creates it, but once run I got a kind of incompatibility exception:

if I try to not install the plugin when generating the image:

FROM docker.elastic.co/logstash/logstash:8.1.0

# no further instructions

and I change my docker-compose.yaml like this:

    command: bash -c "bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-filter-translate && logstash -f /etc/logstash/conf.d/logstash.conf "

I get the same error. Needless to say, if I don't install the plugin, logstash runs smoothly.

How could I fix this?

Hello and welcome,

Why are you trying to install the translate filter? It is not required, this is a core filter that already comes bundled.

As mentioned, there is no need to install the translate filter, it is alreayd bundled.

and you're perfectly right!

logstash@8e6216dd7f68:~$ ./bin/logstash-plugin  list | grep -i transl

I was just following along a course, and maybe they were using an old version of logstash, not including that plugin. Appreciated the very quick answer. thanks!

That's possible, the plugin started getting bundled on version 7.0, which was released around 7 years ago.

The course may be very old or was not updated with recent changes, so other things may not work as well.
