Rivers are not compatible with ES 2.X.

Thanks for your reply.. So how can we connect database through Elasticsearch or logstash?

Is there any other way to connect database through ES or Logstash?

please help me

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-jdbc.html is one way.

My JDBC importer is not a river, and not a plugin.

It's easy: up to ES 1.6, there was a JDBC river. This is history.

From ES 1.6 up, there is JDBC importer. It is running in a separate JVM.

Please consult the issues at https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch-jdbc/ for help from Windows experts in the community.

I don't know Windows, but this might work http://r2d2.cc/2015/08/05/elastic-search-on-windows-with-mysql-sql-server-2014-and-import-feeder/
