`curl ESHOST:9200` will give you the version.

Please don't post pictures of text. It's hard to read and cannot be debugged or searched.

That is usually the response when you're trying to `curl` on `HTTP` when it should be `HTTPS`

Is Elasticsearch running?  
What does your elasticsearch.yml look like?
