s3 configuration problem

hello elasticsearchers !

been a while since i've been on the list. but anyway, glad to see es
is getting stronger and stronger.

anyway, i've downloaded the latest es ( 0.17.4 ). and i am trying to
integrate with s3 so i followed the guide on this page :
http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/modules/gateway/s3.html

but when i try to start es with the new configuration, I get the
following error message :
Initialization Failed ...

  • NoClassSettingsException[Failed to load class setting [gateway.type]
    with value [s3]]
    ClassNotFoundException[s3]

i've tried to search the mailing list for this error message but
doesn't come up.

Anyone with any suggestions? Do i need to export something in order
for es to run properly?

thanks in advance...

Hello Ted,

You need to install the cloud-aws plugin as described here:

I think this lil' gotcha should be documented on the s3 page. Caught me as
well.

Hello Ivan,

Thank you so much! Simple but that was exactly it. Glad to hear I
wasn't the only one caught out. And yes, time permitting for
documentation committers, would be nice to have a one-liner on the s3
page.

Thanks again,
Ted

Updated the s3 page to reflect that the plugin needs to be installed.
