Logstash has X-pack installed but won't recognize it. I'm getting the following logs as output:

[2017-11-15T11:03:25,399][FATAL][logstash.runner] An unexpected error occurred! {:error=\>#\<ArgumentError: Setting “xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.url” hasn’t been registered\>, :backtrace=\>[“/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/settings.rb:32:in `get_setting'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/settings.rb:64:in`set\_value’“, “/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/settings.rb:83:in `merge'", "org/jruby/RubyHash.java:1342:in`each’“, “/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/settings.rb:83:in `merge'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/settings.rb:135:in`validate\_all’“, “/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/runner.rb:243:in `execute'", "/usr/share/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/clamp-0.6.5/lib/clamp/command.rb:67:in`run’“, “/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/runner.rb:204:in `run'", "/usr/share/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/clamp-0.6.5/lib/clamp/command.rb:132:in`run’“, “/usr/share/logstash/lib/bootstrap/environment.rb:71:in `(root)’“]}

Anyone have any ideas on what to do?
