Hi,

I'm trying to connect to the Found Elasticsearch server using logstash 2.0 but got this error

```
bin/logstash -f test.conf
io/console not supported; tty will not be manipulated
Default settings used: Filter workers: 2
←[31mFailed to install template: {:template_overwrite=>false, :template_name=>"logstash", :exception=>#<Manticore::ResolutionFailure: https>, :level=>:error}←[0m
Logstash startup completed

```

My configuration is simple and looks as below:

```
input {
	http {
		 port => 8080 
		codec => "json"
	}
}

output {
	elasticsearch {
		   hosts => ["https://be5afbb....aws.found.io:9243"] <-- i did not include the full address here
		     ssl => true
	}
	stdout {codec => json}
}

```

Is there anything additional I have to add to this config? I tried both with HTTP ans HTTPS (ssl enabled) - with same result  
I also tried to see what happen behind using the '-verbose' and '--debug' arguments all's fine - except the connection error

[As documented](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-outputs-elasticsearch.html#plugins-outputs-elasticsearch-hosts), the `hosts` option should list hostnames or hostname:port combos, not full URLs.
