Connection refused from filebeat to logstash

I have an issue when I try to connect to my logstash from Filebeat

Logstash version 2.0.0
Filebeat 1.0.1

Here the error

INFO Connecting error publishing events (retrying): dial tcp 192.168.50.5:14560: getsockopt: connection refused

This is my logstash configuration

input {
    beats {
        codec => json
        port => 14560
    }
}
output {
    elasticsearch { hosts=> localhost}
    stdout {codec = > rubydebug}
}

Here my filebeat configuration

   logstash:
   # The Logstash hosts
   hosts: ["192.168.50.5:14560","192.168.50.15:14560"]

I install the filebeat logstash plugin as I have read it

 ./plugin install logstash-input-beats

I have completely run out of ideas, and I would love to use this framework, but it seems not to be responding at all. Any ideas would be great.

This happens when your logstash is not up or the logstash host is not getting connected (due to firewall maybe) from the host running filebeat . Try doing a telnet to 192.168.50.5 14560 from the host you are running filebeat.
