"cannot poll for user changes since security index [.security] does not exist" prevents authorization

about the .security index being created when you use esusers to create a new user (or role). For what it's worth, I tried that, but the .security index was never created upon the creation of a new user. I tried this a number of times, with a number of new users,

The esusers tool creates users in the file realm which doesn't use and thus doesn't depend on and won't create the .security index.

You can add users in the native realm as Jay suggested above and this should trigger the creation of the .security index
