Installing "logstash-input-jdbc" I think I'm missing something

Elastic Stack Logstash

Hi,

I'm running logstash 1.4.2 and/or 1.5.0 on windows server 2008. I'm trying to use the logstash-input-jdbc plugin.

Running the "bin/plugin install logstash-input-jdbc" leads me to believe that the plugin is not available. Do I now need to install ruby and something to do with gem build to install a built version? as covered in the below?

Or is there a different approach I have missed?

I've tried:

c:\apps\logstash-1.5.0\bin>plugin install https://rubygems.org/downloads/logstash-input-jdbc-1.0.0.gem
io/console not supported; tty will not be manipulated
Validating https://rubygems.org/downloads/logstash-input-jdbc-1.0.0.gem
Plugin https://rubygems.org/downloads/logstash-input-jdbc-1.0.0.gem does not exist
ERROR: Installation aborted, verification failed for https://rubygems.org/downloads/logstash-input-jdbc-1.0.0.gem

and

c:\apps\logstash-1.5.0\bin>plugin install logstash-input-jdbc
io/console not supported; tty will not be manipulated
Validating logstash-input-jdbc
Plugin logstash-input-jdbc does not exist
ERROR: Installation aborted, verification failed for logstash-input-jdbc

Many thanks

You need the latest version of Logstash: https://www.elastic.co/downloads/logstash

There are no dynamically installable plugins in Logstash 1.4.x
