I think you will need to provide a lot more information than that if someone is going to be able to help. Please show exactly what you have done to get this error, which versions you are running as well as the contents of any relevant log files.

Elasticsearch version is 6.3.0. What I was doing is by using invenio\_records\_rest, I have developed an API to fetch data from elasticsearch.

Please show your code and configuration. Are you connecting to Elasticsearch using the correct port (`9200` for HTTP)?

I have corrected the issue. I dont know the exact solution but what I did is uninstalled and installed elasticsearch. I think the cause for the issue is uninstalling some required packages by accident
