Hello!
My knowledge of the inner workings of logstash are still limited, and now I've run into a problem I can't seem to solve.
[ERROR][logstash.plugins.registry] Problems loading a plugin with {:type=\>"filter", :name=\>"geoip", :path=\>"logstash/filters/geoip", :error\_message=\>"
you might need to reinstall the gem which depends on the missing jar or in case there is Jars.lock then resolve the jars with `lock_jars` command
