The error reported is:  
Couldn't find any filter plugin named 'translate'. Are you sure this is correct? Trying to load the translate filter plugin resulted in this error: no such file to load -- logstash/filters/translate

Getting this error while starting logstash. I reinstalled logstash, still facing same issue. Can anyone help?

Did you do that? ^
