Newly installed metricbeat=>logstash 6.0.0 Error (BeatsParser InvalidFrameProtocolException: Invalid Frame Type)

When connecting metricbeats to logstash, I'm metricbeats is unable to connect:
"Caused by: org.logstash.beats.BeatsParser$InvalidFrameProtocolException: Invalid Frame Type, received"

We have EL5.6+Xpack , Kib5.6 +Xpack (NonSSL passwords for EL5.6)

  • I installed Metricbeat 6.1.1 (with a password and hooked it into ES with no problems.

  • I installed Logstash 5.x and upgraded it to EL 6.x (with a username + password), and it connected to EL fine. (using http inputs). I updated the logstash-input-beats.

  • When I change Logstash to "input { beats { port => "5044" } }". And repointed MetricBeat (from EL to Logstash (with and without the password in the now-defunct EL stanza), I get:
    "Caused by: org.logstash.beats.BeatsParser$InvalidFrameProtocolException: Invalid Frame Type, received"

From MetricBeat I get a connection reset by peer.

Please share your Metricbeat config.

Added.

Try using the Logstash output. Configure the Logstash output | Metricbeat Reference [8.11] | Elastic

Thank you. Forgot to change the comments in the config.
