Yes, I am still facing the same problem. I am wotking on Strigo plateform so I tried nano only. It is working with all other labs in the course.

Hi @Sara_YB ,

please make sure you are editing ~/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml otherwise nano will not be able to save.

You can use the following command after you ssh elasticsearch:

nano ~/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml

Best,
Andre
