Does Logstash-Input-Jms plugin need a specific version of Logstash? I am using Logstash 1.4.2. And I'm struggling to get this plugin to work. Can anyone help me with the configuration? I copied jms.rb into /lib/logstash/inputs/ I copied jms\_spec.rb /spec/inputs Copied the Gemfile, logstash-input-hms.gemspec, Rakefile into the main directory. What am I missing? ---

The 1.4 branch of Logstash is officially deprecated and unsupported. You should upgrade to at _least_ 1.5.x, if not the most recent, 2.2 branch. ---

So the jms plugin wouldn't work with 1.4.2? Assuming I upgrade to 1.5.x or 2.2, I still am lost with regard to the configuration. Is jms plugin shipped with 1.5.x or 2.2? Or do I have to install it separately? Right now, with 1.4.2, I get this error. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/5/5a40827fa84ca7678d363f534ab26cd67d88b525.JPG) ---

With the newer versions, you install the plugin (if not bundled—which it might not be) by changing to your logstash directory and running `bin/plugin install logstash-input-jms` (presuming that's the correct name for it). This requires network access, as it pulls from [rubygems.org](http://rubygems.org) ---

When I try doing it, I get this error. Can you help me with it? ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/c/c66df15d10f65b53dc77b4d5961b2d0d5ae239b8.JPG) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/1/1d7ae60834b58c90cbf2c90e2c7f69e156d538ba.JPG) ---

It appears that the JMS input requires Logstash v2.0 or greater. ---
