Logstash: --configtest not working on 2.3 (undefined method `config_valid?')

[jraby]

I'm getting the following error on 2 instances of logstash that were upgraded from 2.0 to 2.3, both are running ubuntu 12.04 amd64.

The error occurs when running logstash -f /etc/logstash/conf.d --configtest.
Since the new init script uses configtest when doing a restart, it means /etc/init.d/logstash restart cannot be used.

An unexpected error occurred! {:error=>#<NoMethodError: undefined method `config_valid?' for LogStash::Pipeline:Class>, :class=>"NoMethodError", :backtrace=>["/opt/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/logstash-core-2.3.0-java/lib/logstash/agent.rb:169:in `execute'", "/opt/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/logstash-core-2.3.0-java/lib/logstash/runner.rb:94:in `run'", "org/jruby/RubyProc.java:281:in `call'", "/opt/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/logstash-core-2.3.0-java/lib/logstash/runner.rb:99:in `run'", "org/jruby/RubyProc.java:281:in `call'", "/opt/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/stud-0.0.22/lib/stud/task.rb:24:in `initialize'"], :level=>:warn}

I'm getting the same error with 2.3.0 on Windows Server 2012 R2. It works fine with 2.2.2.

Unfortunately "-t/--config-test" had absolutely no tests, so we never realised it broke :-1:

I've created a pr to fix the problem and a basic ok/nok test for the 2.3 branch. I'll create another against master in a few minutes.

Once the fix is merged we should expect a patch release shortly after, as this is a huge bug..

[svenmueller]

when will this fix be available?

@svenmueller @alexClinebb @benlavender @Sakorah We just built a snapshot of 2.3.1 for sanity testing before doing a formal 2.3.1 release as soon as we green light this snapshot. Feel free to test that and let us know if that works for you. +Standard disclaimer about a snapshot release.

FYI 2.3.1 is released, https://www.elastic.co/blog/logstash-2.3.1-and-2.2.4-released

[jraby]

thx @colinsurprenant I'll test that.

[Sakorah]

2.3.1 worked for me on ubuntu14.04. I tried an upgrade from 2.3.0 (verified that configtest failed) to 2.3.1 and it worked.

Just stumbled into the error. It bothered me. Google it. Found this issue. Saw it was alreay fixed. Upgraded and everything is fine again.
God I love open-source :-). Many thanx to all.
