Quick update to announce beta3 release for Logstash 2.0.0. Since we released beta2 last week, we found two important defects which are resolved in this release.
IMPORTANT: This is a beta release and is intended for testing purposes only. There is no guarantee that Logstash 2.0.0-beta3 will be compatible with Logstash 2.0.0 GA.
Bug Fixes
- JSON issues: In beta2, we updated the JSON serialization/deserialization library used in Logstash. A bug in this library caused the Grok filter and Elasticsearch output to serialize JSON string values incorrectly. Issue was fixed upstream and Logstash updated with the new version (#4055).
- HTTP Output: A memory leak has been fixed in this output when HTTP requests were made asynchronously (#24)
