Hello, i've an issue with a fresh logstash installation and logstash-input-rss plugin. when trying to test the configuration for a simple RSS reader for just 1 URL i got this error: [DEBUG] 2023-10-29 19:57:25.354 [Converge PipelineAction::Create] registry - Tried to load a plugin's code, but failed. {:exception=\>#\, :path=\>"rss", :type=\>"input", :name=\>"rss"} [ERROR] 2023-10-29 19:57:25.397 [Converge PipelineAction::Create] registry - Unable to load plugin. {:type=\>"input", :name=\>"rss"} [DEBUG] 2023-10-29 19:57:25.398 [Converge PipelineAction::Create] registry - Problems loading the plugin with {:type=\>"input", :name=\>"rss"} [ERROR] 2023-10-29 19:57:25.403 [Converge PipelineAction::Create] agent - Failed to execute action {:action=\>LogStash::PipelineAction::Create/pipeline\_id:main, :exception=\>"Java::JavaLang::IllegalStateException", :message=\>"Unable to configure plugins: (PluginLoadingError) Couldn't find any input plugin named 'rss'. Are you sure this is correct? Trying to load the rss input plugin resulted in this error: Unable to load the requested plugin named rss of type input. The plugin is not installed." i tried many times to understand what is the issue but I'm sure it was working in previous versions. Is the new logstash version not comnpitable with the old rss-plugin version 3.0.5 ? what is the issue and why the logstash can't load the plugin code ? can we fix this ? ---

> [@developerx](#): > > what is the issue and why the logstash can't load the plugin code ? can we fix this ? The logstash package does not bundle all the plugins that exist. It does not install rss by default. The documentation [covers](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/8.10/working-with-plugins.html#installing-plugins) the simple procedure to fix this. ---

Thanks Badger for your response, I'm sorry that i didn't mention that i know how to install the plugin, and already i installed the plugin because i mentioned the version. So the plugin is installed with the latest version 3.0.5 and located here: `/usr/share/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/3.1.0/gems/logstash-input-rss-3.0.5` ---
