Hi, I am a newbie about Elasticsearch. I am trying ES for some of my projects. I want to connect ES cluster using Thrift with python client. I installed plugin to all machines and restarted them. Then, I try to connect via Thrift and it gives me "socket.timeout: timed out" error. I can connect to my cluster without any problem using HTTP. Is there any additional configurations on server side or client side? Thanks, Umutcan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi, no, there is no other configuration. The error you are getting is weird because it should at least be wrapped in our exception class. Can you provide more details? maybe increase logging and see if anything pops out in the logs, also exact versions and code how you connect to the nodes. thanks On Mon, Feb 24, 2014 at 11:03 AM, [umutcan@gamegos.com](mailto:umutcan@gamegos.com) wrote: > Hi, > > I am a newbie about Elasticsearch.

Hi, Thank you for replying. I figured out that the problem was my host parameter having hostname:port format. After I removed port from host, I managed to connect.
