Hi,

The Elasticsearch bulk plugin included in the current version of Pentaho  
Kettle (4.3) is now out-dated.

An issue has been opened on this subject :

You can apply yourself the patch attached with this issue (not too  
difficult) or use a very old version of Elasticsearch (0.16.3).

Hey Benjamin

Thanks a lot for bug.  
I tried quite a bit but wasn't able to figure out a way to apply the patch.  
From what I understand we need to build kettle using ant.  
Could you point me to any resource which explains what I need to do?

Thanks  
ajay

Hi Ajay,

You just need to apply the patch to the kettle sources and then to use ant  
or eclipse to compile kettle.

Maybe this post could help you :
