Deleteing index times out

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I am trying to delete an index called *dataenvironmentalmarkets *through a
curl request.

curl -XDELETE 'http://myurl.com:9200/dataenvironmentalmarkets/'

The requests times out with an exception

{"error":"ProcessClusterEventTimeoutException[failed to process cluster
event (delete-index [dataenvironmentalmarkets]) within 30s]","status":503}

I also tried extending the timeout to 15m using

curl -XDELETE 'http://myurl.com:9200/dataenvironmentalmarkets/?timeout=15m'

and

curl -XDELETE 'http://myurl.com:9200/dataenvironmentalmarkets?timeout=15m'

The same error. Maybe I am skipping something. Can you help ?

Thanks.

How big is the index?
Have you had a look at your ES logs to see if there is anything?

I've had deleted time out for large indexes one or twice but when I checked
back the index was deleted successfully. It'd be weirder for the index to
stick around I think.
