Unknown setting 'port' for elasticsearch {:level=>:error}

Hi All,

I am using Elasticsearch 1.7.2 and try to copy docs from one index to another index by using logstash 1.5.5

When I am doing configtest of the logstash configuration file.

bin/logstash agent --configtest --config logstash.conf

I am getting below error..

Unknown setting 'port' for elasticsearch {:level=>:error}
Error: Something is wrong with your configuration.

My configuration file details

input {

We read from the "old" index

elasticsearch {
hosts => ["localhost"]
port => "9200"
user => "admin"
password => "password"
index => "es_item"
size => 500
scroll => "5m"
docinfo => true
}
}

filter {

}

output {

We write to the "new" index

elasticsearch {
host => "localhost"
port => "9200"
protocol => "http"
user => "admin"
password => "password"
index => "es_item1"
}

We print dots to see it in action

stdout {
codec => "dots"
}
}

Please help me to fix this issue

Thanks,

Use hosts => "localhost:9200" or just exclude port.
