Can you connect to [https://artifacts.elastic.co](https://artifacts.elastic.co) with your browser? Do you need to configure logstash-plugin to use a proxy?

I had no problems with connecting via browser to [https://artifacts.elastic.co](https://artifacts.elastic.co)
Since you mentioned proxy, I tried this out of the office at home with no VPN an it worked. So it must have been a proxy issue, not sure what everything else at work I can get to.

We have the same problem with installing a logstash plugin for Version 6.0.0-rc1 behind a proxy.
We have scripts in place that automatically prepare a logstash for each new release of the stack. Those scripts work with all versions up to 5.6.3, but stopped working with Version 6.0.0-rc1. They gave the above mentioned error "Failed to open TCP connection to [artifacts.elastic.co:443](http://artifacts.elastic.co:443) (execution expired)".
