Good timing, I just wrote about this yesterday: [“No alive nodes found in your cluster” message when using HTTPS endpoint in PHP API](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/no-alive-nodes-found-in-your-cluster-message-when-using-https-endpoint-in-php-api/33330/3?u=polyfractal)

If I had to guess, I'd say it's either SELinux policies or SSL. Run through that list I posted and see if any of them apply.

If not, can you post your code (particularly the config of the client) and I can take a look?
