Hi, I am trying to create Transport client using below code ```auto .put("cluster.name", clusterName) .put("xpack.security.user", "elastic:RIzpjJS0HxVSgzg1oyZy") .build() val createdClient: TransportClient = new PreBuiltXPackTransportClient(settings)//.addTransportAddresses(addresses: _*) .addTransportAddress(new TransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName("localhost"), 9300)) ``` But I am getting error as below An exception or error caused a run to abort. java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError at org.elasticsearch.xpack.core.XPackClientPlugin.additionalSettings(XPackClientPlugin.java:191) at org.elasticsearch.plugins.PluginsService.updatedSettings(PluginsService.java:209) at org.elasticsearch.client.transport.TransportClient.buildTemplate(TransportClient.java:136) at org.elasticsearch.client.transport.TransportClient.(TransportClient.java:280) at org.elasticsearch.transport.client.PreBuiltTransportClient.(PreBuiltTransportClient.java:128) at org.elasticsearch.xpack.client.PreBuiltXPackTransportClient.(PreBuiltXPackTransportClient.java:47) at org.elasticsearch.xpack.client.PreBuiltXPackTransportClient.(PreBuiltXPackTransportClient.java:42) at org.elasticsearch.xpack.client.PreBuiltXPackTransportClient.(PreBuiltXPackTransportClient.java:38) at com.decooda.es.util.TestHelper$.localClient$lzycompute(TestHelper.scala:34) at com.decooda.es.util.TestHelper$.localClient(TestHelper.scala:25) at com.decooda.kibana.KibanaReportTest$$anon$1.(KibanaReportTest.scala:14) at com.decooda.kibana.KibanaReportTest.(KibanaReportTest.scala:13) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:45) at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:423) at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:442) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$.genSuiteConfig(Runner.scala:1428) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$$anonfun$31.apply(Runner.scala:1236) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$$anonfun$31.apply(Runner.scala:1235) at scala.collection.immutable.List.map(List.scala:284) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$.doRunRunRunDaDoRunRun(Runner.scala:1235) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$$anonfun$runOptionallyWithPassFailReporter$2.apply(Runner.scala:1011) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$$anonfun$runOptionallyWithPassFailReporter$2.apply(Runner.scala:1010) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$.withClassLoaderAndDispatchReporter(Runner.scala:1506) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$.runOptionallyWithPassFailReporter(Runner.scala:1010) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner$.run(Runner.scala:850) at org.scalatest.tools.Runner.run(Runner.scala) at org.jetbrains.plugins.scala.testingSupport.scalaTest.ScalaTestRunner.runScalaTest2(ScalaTestRunner.java:131) at org.jetbrains.plugins.scala.testingSupport.scalaTest.ScalaTestRunner.main(ScalaTestRunner.java:28) Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.unboundid.util.Debug at org.elasticsearch.xpack.core.XPackPlugin$1.run(XPackPlugin.java:101) at org.elasticsearch.xpack.core.XPackPlugin$1.run(XPackPlugin.java:95) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at org.elasticsearch.xpack.core.XPackPlugin.(XPackPlugin.java:95) ... 30 more Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.unboundid.util.Debug at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:381) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:424) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:349) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357) at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:264) at org.elasticsearch.xpack.core.XPackPlugin$1.run(XPackPlugin.java:99) ... 33 more I am using sbt to build and test application.
