I was trying to install logstash for development contribution. While I was trying to see if it is installed properly, I ran

```auto
 bin/logstash -e 'input { stdin { } } output { stdout {} }'

```

I am now getting the following error:

```auto

I think the issue occurs when setting OSS to true? I will try by setting it to false.

Thanks! I would create an issue on github for this as this OSS step is an issue
