Right now, I installed Marvel 2.x with Elasticsearch 2.3.1 and when I start up ES, I get the following error in the logs. Any clue as to how to solve it?

[2016-04-20 10:24:59,379][INFO][marvel.agent.exporter] [LOGSTASH-vx1e0c-D3] skipping exporter [default\_local] as it isn't ready yet

Why is it skipping the exporter?

Whether I leave these lines commented or uncommented (in elasticsearch.yml), I keep getting that "skipping exporter".

marvel.agent.exporters:  
id1:  
type: http  
host: ${ES\_CLUSTER\_HOSTS}

Apart from this, I get an error:

Could I get any help, please?
