Hi,  
I have successfully implemented searchguard in elasticsearch. But from java side Transport client not working now. Below is my configuration.

Settings settings = Settings.builder()  
.put("[cluster.name](http://cluster.name)", "searchguard\_demo")  
.put(SSLConfigConstants.SEARCHGUARD\_SSL\_TRANSPORT\_KEYSTORE\_FILEPATH,"C:\Users\c-ajitb\Desktop\SearchguardFiles\esnode.pem")  
.put(SSLConfigConstants.SEARCHGUARD\_SSL\_TRANSPORT\_TRUSTSTORE\_FILEPATH, "C:\Users\c-ajitb\Desktop\SearchguardFiles\esnode-key.pem")  
.put(SSLConfigConstants.SEARCHGUARD\_SSL\_TRANSPORT\_KEYSTORE\_PASSWORD, "admin")  
.put(SSLConfigConstants.SEARCHGUARD\_SSL\_TRANSPORT\_TRUSTSTORE\_PASSWORD, "admin")  
.build();  
TransportClient transclient = new PreBuiltTransportClient(settings,SearchGuardSSLPlugin.class).addTransportAddress(  
new InetSocketTransportAddress(new InetSocketAddress("172.21.153.176", 9300)));

It is giving exception ElasticsearchException[Failed to load plugin class [com.floragunn.searchguard.ssl.SearchGuardSSLPlugin]]; nested: InvocationTargetException; nested: NoSuchMethodError[org.elasticsearch.common.logging.Loggers.getLogger(Ljava/lang/Class;)Lorg/elasticsearch/common/logging/ESLogger;];

Also please check my file names. I dont have keystore and truststore files in my searchguard configuartion.  
Please provide solution.  
I am using 6.0.0 versions.

Thanks,  
Ajit
