Hi, I am planning to upgrade from 0.90.0 to 0.90.10, but I am facing problems in even starting version 0.90.10 As soon as i start a node on my local machine I get the following error: [2014-02-03 19:30:40,776][INFO][discovery.zen] [Night Nurse] failed to send join request to master [[Peter Criss][HnGtgLAbS\_CVmHZBKMQ5sQ][inet[/192.168.100.210:9300]]], reason [org.elasticsearch.transport.RemoteTransportException: [Peter Criss][inet[/192.168.100.210:9300]][discovery/zen/join]; org.elasticsearch.transport.RemoteTransportException: [Night Nurse][inet[/192.168.100.90:9300]][discovery/zen/join/validate]; java.io.IOException: Expected handle header, got [56]] [2014-02-03 19:30:43,834][WARN][transport.netty] [Night Nurse] Message not fully read (request) for [4169] and action [discovery/zen/join/validate], resetting The master node it tries to join to in always [Peter Criss] though as expected my node's name would change every time. I couldn't find any help regarding this anywhere. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

So the versions of 192.168.100.210 and 192.168.100.90 are different? Although elasticsearch is supposed to support cluster that differ between minor versions, this scenario is no longer true with later versions of 0.90. -- Ivan On Mon, Feb 3, 2014 at 6:02 AM, Sambhav Sharma [sambhav.sharma@minjar.com](mailto:sambhav.sharma@minjar.com)wrote: > Hi, I am planning to upgrade from 0.90.0 to 0.90.10, but I am facing > problems in even starting version 0.90.10 > As soon as i start a node on my local machine I get the following error: > > [2014-02-03 19:30:40,776][INFO][discovery.zen] [Night Nurse] > failed to send join request to master [[Peter > Criss][HnGtgLAbS\_CVmHZBKMQ5sQ][inet[/192.168.100.210:9300]]], reason > [org.elasticsearch.transport.RemoteTransportException: [Peter > Criss][inet[/192.168.100.210:9300]][discovery/zen/join]; > org.elasticsearch.transport.RemoteTransportException: [Night > Nurse][inet[/192.168.100.90:9300]][discovery/zen/join/validate]; > java.io.IOException: Expected handle header, got [56]] > [2014-02-03 19:30:43,834][WARN][transport.netty] [Night Nurse] > Message not fully read (request) for [4169] and action > [discovery/zen/join/validate], resetting > > The master node it tries to join to in always [Peter Criss] though as > expected my node's name would change every time. > I couldn't find any help regarding this anywhere. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "elasticsearch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com](mailto:elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com). > To view this discussion on the web visit > [https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/b0574133-a266-4fe7-910f-f897b65622c9%40googlegroups.com](https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/elasticsearch/b0574133-a266-4fe7-910f-f897b65622c9%40googlegroups.com) > . > For more options, visit [https://groups.google.com/groups/opt\_out](https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
