Hi,

I am having problem running this plugin. I downloaded logstash and logstash-input-couchdb\_changes plugin, unzipped those and then followed 1st two steps in the sections below. I am running windows 7. I didn't install any ruby packages.. Don't know if I need to install any ruby packages or not? Please help.

Run in a local Logstash clone

```
Edit Logstash Gemfile and add the local plugin path, for example:

```

gem "logstash-filter-awesome", :path =\> "/your/local/logstash-filter-awesome"

```
Install plugin

```

bin/plugin install --no-verify

But I am getting this error:  
E:/Softwares/Web Related\logstash-1.5.3\logstash-1.5.3\bin\>plugin install --no-verify  
io/console not supported; tty will not be manipulated

      I tried with logstash version 1.5.2. I tested logstash with

```

"logstash -e 'input { stdin { } } output { stdout {} }'" and it worked  
except that I got message "io/console not supported; tty will not be  
manipulated" (don't know whats this for) but when I tried to install  
plugin it failed with error:

io/console not supported; tty will not be manipulated

Installing...

Plugin not found, aborting

ERROR: Installation Aborted, message: Could not find gem 'logstash-input-couchdb

\_changes-master (\>= 0) java' in source at E:/Softwares/Web Related/logstash-1.5.

2/logstash-input-couchdb\_changes-master.

Source does not contain any versions of 'logstash-input-couchdb\_changes-master (

= 0) java'

Is there anything Im missing? Please help
