Hello, I just upgrade logstash to 8.17.4 and I got a error:

[2025-03-28T10:26:23,030][ERROR][logstash.agent] Failed to execute action {:action=\>LogStash::PipelineAction::Create/pipeline\_id:filelogger, :exception=\>"Java::JavaLang::IllegalStateException", :message=\>"Unable to configure plugins: (PluginLoadingError) Couldn't find any filter plugin named 'elasticsearch'. Are you sure this is correct? Trying to load the elasticsearch filter plugin resulted in this error: Unable to load the requested plugin named elasticsearch of type filter. The plugin is not installed.",

I try to install the plug-in with using this command: /usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-filter-elasticsearch  
with no luck.

Thanks

It’s look like manticore is not there:

Just update logstash-filter-elasticsearch to latest version fix the issue:

/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash-plugin update logstash-filter-elasticsearch
