I'm stuck in a Catch 22 - when I enable x-pack security I cannot connect to elastic for setting passwords. When I disable x-pack security, and go to set passwords, it tells me security is not enabled on this system
The default username is elastic and password is changeme . You can check if authentication is enabled by running the same command you ran to check if Elasticsearch is working.
If I set xpack.security.enabled: true - I cannot use my cluster
If I set xpack.security.enabled: false - I cannot set any passwords
To tell you the truth. I have not even gotten into how to use authenticated users yet
so what's the command for testing if elastic is running while xpack is enabled?
I'll take a Look at your guide.
I just started this morning
I had a successful cluster running yesterday (and can again by commenting the xpack stuff)
1 master node and two data nodes
Also did you see this? Trouble with the setup-password command. I am not sure which error you were getting.
Yes I would set up all the certs etc before you try to run the setup-passwords command... My walk through should have the correct "Meta Process" you will just need to make sure you do it all correct on all 3 nodes. setup-passwords is only run once though (in case that was not clear)
