# LogStash Installation
There are a few ways to install logstash:
* standalone runnable jar file (monolithic)
* gem install logstash
## 'standalone runnable jar'
This jar is a runnable jar with elasticsearch and most other dependencies
included. To use it, do the following:
### web interface
java -jar logstash-%VERSION%-monolithic.jar web
### agent
java -jar logstash-%VERSION%-monolithic.jar agent -f youragent.conf
### Combined
You can run both the agent and web interface (or any number of separate agents)
in the same java process. Just use '--' indicate the start of a new command
line:
java -jar logstash-%VERSION%-monolithic.jar agent -f myagent.conf -- web
## 'gem install logstash'
Using this method to download logstash will install all ruby dependencies.
* You must have JRuby already
* If you use elasticsearch, you'll have to add that to the java classpath.
(See below for web interface notes)
* If you use grok, you'll need libgrok installed.
### web interface
* You have elasticsearch already
* You'll need to know the path to your elasticsearch lib directory.
% CLASSPATH=$(ls /opt/elasticsearch/lib/*.jar | tr '\n' ':') logstash-web
Thin web server (v1.2.7 codename No Hup)
Maximum connections set to 1024
Listening on 0.0.0.0:9292, CTRL+C to stop
For the above, replace '/opt/elasticsearch/lib' with wherever you downloaded
and unpacked elasticsearch.
### agent
% logstash -f youragent.conf
# Or if you need elasticsearch:
% CLASSPATH=$(ls /opt/elasticsearch/lib/*.jar | tr '\n' ':') logstash -f youragent.conf
