Monitoring information from logstash to elasticsearch is not working. Here is my configuration of logstash.yml and the error log thrown:

Logstash.yml:

```
path.config: /usr/share/logstash/conf.d
xpack.monitoring.enabled: true
xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.hosts: ["http://elk-master03:9200"]

```

Error log:

```

```

I'm using an ELK stack with version 7.1 with the official docker images.
