Hi, Trying to install plugin ``` # export https_proxy=https://myname:passw@rd@10.10.10.11:80 # export http_proxy=http://myname:passw@rd@10.10.10.11:80 # bin/plugin install logstash-output-syslog Validating logstash-output-syslog URI::InvalidURIError: the scheme https does not accept registry part: myname:passw@rd@10.10.10.11:80 (or bad hostname?) ``` How to solve this? My password has a "@" character. Wonder if this is the problem thanks ---

Yes, probably. It might work better if you replace the "@" in your password with "%40". ---
