[syslog-ng] Java issue with elasticsearch

[Nagy, Gábor]

Hi Komi!

You need the java package for syslog-ng too: "syslog-ng-mod-java".
What is the source of the syslog-ng package you installed?

You will need additional steps after you have installed the syslog-ng java
package.
In our admin we have detailed instructions to setup elasticsearch2
destination:
https://syslog-ng.com/documents/html/syslog-ng-ose-latest-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-guide-admin/html/configuring-destinations-elasticsearch2.html

Feel free to ask if you got stuck!

Regards,
Gabor
