Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi.

Today I've update my develop single cluster from 8.4.X to 8.5.0

When I've tried to reset password get error (same from host that from terminal of docker desktop)

❯ docker exec -it sitelight-es01 /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-reset-password -a -u root
This tool will reset the password of the [root] user to an autogenerated value.
The password will be printed in the console.
Please confirm that you would like to continue [y/N]y



ERROR: Failed to reset password for the [root] user

I have deleted containers and rebuild containers.

Also problems with http_ca.crt

Certs not exists

sh-5.0$ ls -lisah /usr/share/elasticsearch/config/certs/http_ca.crt
ls: cannot access '/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/certs/http_ca.crt': No such file or directory
sh-5.0$ ls -lisah /usr/share/elasticsearch/config/

I finally understood what the issue is. If I have created my single-node without security with docker, no password or certificates are needed, but the communication is done without https, only with http

 curl -XGET "http://localhost:9200/" -H "kbn-xsrf: reporting"
