Logstash Won't Start after Restart 6.2.2 load error: jopenssl

[devin.ferguson]

Hello all!
I am currently working on a test instance of logstash. It has been working fine until recently I did a service logstash restart because I change a configuration file slightly. Since then logstash won't start. It just continually restarts and posts this message to syslog.

logstash[6587]: [ERROR] 2018-04-13 15:06:48.901 [main] Logstash - java.lang.IllegalStateException: org.jruby.exceptions.RaiseException: (LoadError) load error: jopenssl -- java.lang.RuntimeException: BUG: we can not copy embedded jar to temp directory

The server is running Ubuntu 16.04
Logstash was installed using .deb

The configuration I changed was just removing a whole filter line from a conf.d file. The change shouldn't be causing this kind of error.
Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Devin

I rebooted the server and now the error message has changed slightly.
