Greetings all:

I recently installed syslog-ng on my Debian 9 system. I have tested syslog-ng with a file destination and everything seemed fine. Now, I am attempting?? to set the destination to my local Elasticsearch instance. However, I am receiving the following error:

Error parsing destination, destination plugin elasticsearch-http not found in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf at line 44, column 1:

elasticsearch-http(

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

My configuration, based on the documentation:

elasticsearch-http(
?? index("syslog")
?? type("test")
?? url("http:/localhost:9200/_bulk"));
};

Output of syslog-ng --version:
