[syslog-ng] Syslog-ng 3.7.3 + Elasticsearch V2.3 - Error init pipeline

[Marco Mignone]

Hi All,
I am trying to setup syslog-ng to use elasticsearch as its destination on Ubuntu 14.04.
This the version of syslog (the unofficial versions installed from laszlo_budai rep:

syslog-ng 3.7.3
Installer-Version: 3.7.3
Revision: 3.7.3-8
Compile-Date: Jun  1 2016 16:33:00
Available-Modules: basicfuncs,linux-kmsg-format,riemann,afuser,afstomp,afprog,json-plugin,afsmtp,affile,csvparser,mod-java,pseudofile,confgen,afsocket,afamqp,redis,sdjournal,kvformat,syslogformat,afsql,system-source,mod-python,graphite,dbparser,geoip-plugin,afmongodb,cryptofuncs

Elastic search is:

 "name" : "Theresa Cassidy",
 "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
 "version" : {
   "number" : "2.3.3",
   "build_hash" : "218bdf10790eef486ff2c41a3df5cfa32dadcfde",
   "build_timestamp" : "2016-05-17T15:40:04Z",
   "build_snapshot" : false,
   "lucene_version" : “5.5.0"


And my custom configuration in /etc/syslog-ng/conf.d/test.conf which is:

@module mod-java

source s_net {
 udp();
 tcp();
};

destination d_elastic {
 elasticsearch(
   index("syslog-ng_${YEAR}.${MONTH}.${DAY}")
   type("test")
   client_lib_dir("/usr/share/elasticsearch/lib")
  );
};

log {
 source(s_net);
 destination(d_elastic);
 flags(flow-control);
};


When I try to launch syslog in debug mode this is what I get:

Was anyone able to make this work or suggest a way to fix this?
I hope I am on the right place and if not apologies in advance.

Thanks,
Marco
