Hi, I have deployed elasticserach and logstash in kubernetes cluster. And my logstash is unable to connect to elasticserach. Problem is:- my elasticserach url is:- [https://my-server.com/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com/elasticsearch) And logstash is taking:- [https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch) as a result of which it is getting connection timeout, not sure why it is taking ([https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch)), I have mentioned the host as ([https://my-server.com/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com/elasticsearch)) in my logstash.conf file. Note:- My elasticsearch is accessible only through ([https://my-server.com/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com/elasticsearch)), where as logstash is taking ([https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch)) Can someone help with this issue. ---

If you want it to use something else (e.g. 80) then you need to explicitly set that in the URL. ---

Hi, I want the url just to be [https://my-server.com/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com/elasticsearch). But in the logstash output it is taking [https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com:9200/elasticsearch). I have explicitly mentioned as [https://my-server.com/elasticsearch](https://my-server.com/elasticsearch) only. ---

As badger said, you need to specify the port in your logstash configuration, if you do not specify the port logstash will use the port `9200`. In your case you should try to set `hosts => "https://my-server.com:443/elasticsearch` in your elasticsearch output. ---

Okay, I will try with port 443. ---
