Logstash: Startup error Logstash (OpenSSL::X509::StoreError)

[LipatovNikita]

I have installed Logstash and I try to run it with a command: sudo /usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash.
But I get a startup error:
[ERROR] 2018-05-12 20:54:15.228 [main] Logstash - java.lang.IllegalStateException: org.jruby.exceptions.RaiseException: (OpenSSL::X509::StoreError) setting default path failed: the
trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty.

• Version: 6.2.4
• Ubuntu 18.04
• Config File:

input {
  kafka {
    bootstrap_servers = "localhost:9092"
    topics = ["cpu_metrics"]
    enable_auto_commit = "true"
    type = "cpu"
  }
}
output {
  if [type] == "cpu" {
    file {
      path => "/home/cpu/cpu.log"
    }
   }
}

Is there a stack trace alongside that error? Can you share more of the log output?

Hello, I am having the same issue, with the same version and O.S.

$ ./logstash -e 'input { stdin { } } output { stdout {} }'
[ERROR] 2018-05-18 07:45:58.226 [main] Logstash - java.lang.IllegalStateException: org.jruby.exceptions.RaiseException: (OpenSSL::X509::StoreError) setting default path failed: the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty

That's all, any suggestion?

I ran sudo rm /etc/ssl/certs/java/cacerts and then sudo update-ca-certificates -f and this fixed my issue in kubuntu 18.04.

@LipatovNikita check the thread.

i had the same problem and the past solution didn't work for me i found this out:
1- find the current java version using the following command

sudo update-alternatives --display java

2-you should get result like that

link currently points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java

3-use the following command

cd  /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/security

4- use the following command

ln -fs /System/Library/Java/Support/CoreDeploy.bundle/Contents/Home/lib/security/cacerts

it should work now
