I have followed the official documentation and written the following:
# Update repository
sudo apt-get update
# Install necessary things. Like SSL support and JDK
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https default-jdk -y
# Download and install the GPG KEY. Add the repository for elasticsearch version 7. Update and install logstash
wget -qO - https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/7.x/apt stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elastic-7.x.list
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install logstash -y
# configure ES daemon
sudo /bin/systemctl daemon-reload
sudo /bin/systemctl enable logstash.service
sudo systemctl start logstash.service
But the following appears:

Successfully created system startup script for Logstash
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/logstash.service → /etc/systemd/system/logstash.service.
Although it is installed when I run the following command to test it manually:
/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash -e "input { stdin { } } output { stdout {} }"
And the error repeats and does not allow to do anything.

I don't know if it's because of the java version (openjdk 11.0.7 2020-04-14) or another error. I have never used java so these errors confuse me a bit. Thank you all.
