```

Well, I have this above error and I don't know how to fix it.

My config:

```auto
input {
  file {
    path => "/opt/nsm/*"
    start_position => "beginning"
    sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
  }
}

output {
  elasticsearch {
    hosts => ["http://192.168.0.108:9200"]
    index => "%{[@metadata][nsm]}-%{[@metadata][version]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
    user => "elastic"
    password => " ****************"
  }
}

```

I fixed it with this:

> output {  
> elasticsearch {  
> hosts =\> ["http **s** ://192.168.0.108:9200"]  
> index =\> "%{[@metadata][nsm]}-%{[@metadata][version]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"  
> user =\> "elastic"  
> password =\> "\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*"  
> **ssl\_certificate\_verification =\> false**  
> }  
> }
