I'm trying to run logstash 1.5 with embedded ES, but I keep getting an error during startup:

```

```

This is the relevant part of my config:

```
output {
    elasticsearch {
        embedded => true
    }
}

```

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Turned out to be a VPN issue. When disabling the active VPN connection, it worked.
