Elasticsearch YUM Repositories Are Down

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Elasticsearch Community,

The documentation for installing Elasticsearch as an RPM is out of date. Not sure on the status of the YUM repos. I noticed there was ticket(155198) open in Nov, yet was closed with no resolution.

Let me know!

If you are noticing a problem then providing details on what you are doing and what you are seeing, including commands, their output, and any other logging, is really helpful.

Thank you for the response. I made an assumption when attempting to access via my web browser over port 443 and I got a 404 Not Found. Therefore I assumed that the yum install would not work. We also attempted to proxy this internally via Artifactory and still received a 404. In an attempt to answer your question above, I attempted to install elasticsearch on my own Fedora machine.
