Configure ingest manager in elasticseach 7.9

I have configured ELK on a single VM ( Centos 7 / 10Gig / 4 CPU) along with filebeat and auditbeat as POC and encountered the below error while trying to use the ingest manager.

I followed the security setup as suggested in this link, the elasticsearch wont come up after many attempts of troubleshooting and i need some help to fix it.

HTTPS is required in order to use the API key service; please enable HTTPS using the [xpack.security.http.ssl.enabled] setting or disable the API key service using the [xpack.security.authc.api_key.enabled] setting

The elasticsearch config is below:

#
# Block initial recovery after a full cluster restart until N nodes are started:
#
#gateway.recover_after_nodes: 3
#
# For more information, consult the gateway module documentation.
#
# ---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------

Checking if anyone has any ideas ?

Could you share you full elasticsearch.yml and kibana.yml?

Refer to documentation below, you are required to change all url to https.

Update all clients, tools, and applications that connect to Elasticsearch to use the https protocol in their configuration URL. For example, Kibana, Beats, Logstash, language clients, and custom applications.

HI @kavierkoo

Thank you for replying back, please find the requested config files below ( I have hashed the parameters from earlier config as i needed the ELK to be up for testing someting )

I am more than happy to edit any config to get this working.

elasticsearch.yml

**# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================**
**#**
**# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.**
**#       Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you**
**#       understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.**
**#**
**# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists**
**# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.**
**#**
**# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:**
**# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html**
**#**
**# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------**
**#**
**# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:**
**#**
**cluster.name: ELK**
**#**
**# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------**
**#**
**# Use a descriptive name for the node:**
**#**
**#node.name: node-1**
**#**
**# Add custom attributes to the node:**
**#**
**#node.attr.rack: r1**
**#**
**# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------**
**#**
**# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):**
**#**
**path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch**
**#**
**# Path to log files:**
**#**
**path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch**
**#**
**# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------**
**#**
**# Lock the memory on startup:**
**#**
**#bootstrap.memory_lock: true**
**#**
**# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available**
**# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this**
**# limit.**
**#**
**# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.**
**#**
**# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------**
**#**
**# Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6):**
**#**
**network.host: 0**
**discovery.seed_hosts : []**
**cluster.initial_master_nodes : []**
**# Set a custom port for HTTP:**
**#**
**logger.org.elasticsearch.transport: debug**
**http.port: 9200**
**#**
**# For more information, consult the network module documentation.**
**#**
**# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------**
**#**
**# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when this node is started:**
**# The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]**
**#**
**#discovery.seed_hosts: ["host1", "host2"]**
**#**
**# Bootstrap the cluster using an initial set of master-eligible nodes:**
**#**
**#cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["node-1", "node-2"]**
**#**
**# For more information, consult the discovery and cluster formation module documentation.**
**#**
**# ---------------------------------- Gateway -----------------------------------**
**#**
**# Block initial recovery after a full cluster restart until N nodes are started:**
**#**
**#gateway.recover_after_nodes: 3**
**#**
**# For more information, consult the gateway module documentation.**

In kibana.yml this has to be https.

After that have a look if anything from the log.

Hope this can help

Let me try this out, will get back to you

@kavierkoo

Could you confirm if i had to make any other changes too ( the one i hashed earlier ? )

I did tried the change you suggested and restarted elasticsearch and kibana however no action seem to have been happening in the logs
