I have one Oracle database using username/password authentication, and another Oracle database using PKI authentication. I've successfully gotten the Logstash jdbc-input plugin working with the username/password authentication DB.

However, I am unable to get it working with the PKI authentication DB. When I try to run Logstash against it, I get the following error:  
"IO Error: Got minus one from a read call"

I think I set things up properly, but maybe not? Before running Logstash, I added my trust store, key store, etc. to the LS\_JAVA\_OPTS environment variable. I omitted the password from the Logstash jdbc-input config. Am I missing something here?

Or maybe the jdbc-input plugin does not work with PKI/cert authentication?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Small update--I did not have my certs in the right location. Fixed that issue, but getting this new error now...

"ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied"
