Hey all, I'm trying to get Elasticsearch configured with Enterprise Search. I'm using docker compose to do so. I'm using the following files:
# Password for the 'elastic' user (at least 6 characters)
ELASTIC_PASSWORD=supersecretelasticpw
# Password for the 'kibana_system' user (at least 6 characters)
KIBANA_PASSWORD=supersecretkibanapw
# Version of Elastic products
STACK_VERSION=8.13.2
# Set the cluster name
CLUSTER_NAME=my-cluster
# Set to 'basic' or 'trial' to automatically start the 30-day trial
#LICENSE=basic
LICENSE=trial
# Port to expose Elasticsearch HTTP API to the host
#ES_PORT=9200
ES_PORT=127.0.0.1:9200
# Port to expose Kibana to the host
KIBANA_PORT=5601
#KIBANA_PORT=80
# Increase or decrease based on the available host memory (in bytes)
MEM_LIMIT=32000000000
# Project namespace (defaults to the current folder name if not set)
#COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=myproject
ENTERPRISE_SEARCH_PORT=3002
ENCRYPTION_KEYS=secret
And as suggested from the Enterprise Search installation page for docker, this is my docker-compose.yml file:
version: "2.2"
services:
setup:
image: docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:${STACK_VERSION}
volumes:
- certs:/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/certs
user: "0"
command: >
bash -c '
if [ x${ELASTIC_PASSWORD} == x ]; then
echo "Set the ELASTIC_PASSWORD environment variable in the .env file";
exit 1;
elif [ x${KIBANA_PASSWORD} == x ]; then
echo "Set the KIBANA_PASSWORD environment variable in the .env file";
exit 1;
fi;
if [ ! -f certs/ca.zip ]; then
echo "Creating CA";
bin/elasticsearch-certutil ca --silent --pem -out config/certs/ca.zip;
unzip config/certs/ca.zip -d config/certs;
fi;
if [ ! -f certs/certs.zip ]; then
echo "Creating certs";
echo -ne \
"instances:\n"\

bin/elasticsearch-certutil cert --silent --pem -out config/certs/certs.zip --in config/certs/instances.yml --ca-cert config/certs/ca/ca.crt --ca-key config/certs/ca/ca.key;
unzip config/certs/certs.zip -d config/certs;
fi;
echo "Setting file permissions"
chown -R root:root config/certs;
find . -type d -exec chmod 750 \{\} \;;
find . -type f -exec chmod 640 \{\} \;;
echo "Waiting for Elasticsearch availability";
until curl -s --cacert config/certs/ca/ca.crt https://es01:9200 | grep -q "missing authentication credentials"; do sleep 30; done;
echo "Setting kibana_system password";
until curl -s -X POST --cacert config/certs/ca/ca.crt -u elastic:${ELASTIC_PASSWORD} -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://es01:9200/_security/user/kibana_system/_password -d "{\"password\":\"${KIBANA_PASSWORD}\"}" | grep -q "^{}"; do sleep 10; done;
echo "All done!";

I'm bringing the cluster down with docker compose up -d, and down with docker compose down -v. Earlier today I had already done an install and bring-up once using this method of just elasticsearch (no enterprise search) and it worked just fine. I actually even did manage to get elasticsearch + enterprise search working no problem the first time I tried it (using these exact .env and docker-compose.yml files), but what "just worked" before seems to have randomly... stopped working. Now, when I do this... elasticsearch seems to install/start normally but is refusing my password. As in I'll go to localhost:5601/, and try to sign in as the elastic user, but it will consistently reject the password I set in the .env file. What's even weirder is that it will accept the kibana_system password (and so will let me technically log in as kibana_system), but then of course will immediately throw the error that I'm not allowed to access ES using that account.
I don't believe that I'm deviating too far from the happy path so far, so I'm not sure where the issue is coming from. Any help is appreciated.
