I have logstash v5.0.1 running in Redhat Enterprise v6.8. Recently, I tried to install plugin "logstash-output-email" using command-line from Internet using below commands.
wget https://api.rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz
And, extracted to logstash bin path and then executed below commands.
./logstash-plugin install logstash-output-email
/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash-plugin install --no-verify logstash-output-email
But none of them worked due to proxy and it failed. Then I came to knew that proxy is not enabled due to security reasons. So I reverted the configuration in the output plugin and restarted the logstash service.
Then I noted logstash is spawning new process and process ids every few seconds and I see the below error messages appended to the /var/log/logstash-stderr.log file when logstash is running. Why is it still referring the Gem dependencies. It didn't install since there is no internet connectivity. so logstash should be running without issues, right?
Bundler::GemNotFound: Could not find gem 'logstash-output-email (>= 0) java' in any of the gem sources listed in your Gemfile or installed on this machine.
