ES - xpack & https

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello folks,

Once again I am turning to you.

My SSL/TLS works. However when I add my HTTPS, it fails. I have added my certificate password with the command from the link below. I use the same cert for my TLS & HTTPS.

Error from journalctl or status doesn't say much except that elasticsearch is failing.

Any insight ?

Tried

  • Removing password from keystore and re-adding them.

Config

xpack.security.enabled: true
xpack.security.transport.ssl.enabled: true
xpack.security.http.ssl.enabled: true

xpack.security.http.ssl.keystore.path: certs/master1.p12
xpack.security.http.ssl.truststore.path: certs/master1.p12

xpack.security.transport.ssl.keystore.path: certs/master1.p12
xpack.security.transport.ssl.truststore.path: certs/master1.p12

So... for some reason I cannot explain, the certificate password got removed. It was an empty string. I had to change all my secure keys to match up.

How did I found out ?

  1. Exported the certificate on a desktop.
  2. Tried to install the certificate with the password entered at creation.
  3. It didn't work so I tried an empty string and it was successful.

If that can be any help to someone out there.
