I installed elasticsearch 8.7 but icant acess it through my browser down here is my yml file

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================

#

# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.

# Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you

# understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.

#

# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists

# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.

#

# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:

# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html

#

# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------

#

# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:

#

#cluster.name: CIVE_Security_lab

#

# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------

#

# Use a descriptive name for the node:

#

#node.name: node-1

#

# Add custom attributes to the node:

#

#node.attr.rack: r1

#

# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------

#

# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):

#

#path.data: /path/to/data

#

# Path to log files:

#

#path.logs: /path/to/logs

#

# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------

#

# Lock the memory on startup:

#

#bootstrap.memory_lock: true

#

# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available

# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this

# limit.

#

# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.

#

# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------

#

# By default Elasticsearch is only accessible on localhost. Set a different

# address here to expose this node on the network:

#

network.host: 172.16.32.99

#

# By default Elasticsearch listens for HTTP traffic on the first free port it

# finds starting at 9200. Set a specific HTTP port here:

#

http.port: 9200

#

# For more information, consult the network module documentation.

#

# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------

#

# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when this node is started:

# The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]

#

#discovery.seed_hosts: ["host1", "host2"]

#

# Bootstrap the cluster using an initial set of master-eligible nodes:

#

#cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["node-1", "node-2"]

#

# For more information, consult the discovery and cluster formation module documentation.

#

# ---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------

#

# Allow wildcard deletion of indices:

#

#action.destructive_requires_name: false

#----------------------- BEGIN SECURITY AUTO CONFIGURATION -----------------------

#

# The following settings, TLS certificates, and keys have been automatically

# generated to configure Elasticsearch security features on 15-05-2023 07:56:24

#

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Enable security features

xpack.security.enabled: true

xpack.security.enrollment.enabled: true

#Enable auto monitoring

#xpack.monitoring.enabled: true

# Enable encryption for HTTP API client connections, such as Kibana, Logstash, and Agents

xpack.security.http.ssl:

enabled: true

keystore.path: certs/http.p12

# Enable encryption and mutual authentication between cluster nodes

xpack.security.transport.ssl:

enabled: true

verification_mode: certificate

keystore.path: certs/transport.p12

truststore.path: certs/transport.p12

# Create a new cluster with the current node only

# Additional nodes can still join the cluster later

cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["DESKTOP-1A0GE7A"]

# Allow HTTP API connections from anywhere

# Connections are encrypted and require user authentication

http.host: 0.0.0.0

# Allow other nodes to join the cluster from anywhere

# Connections are encrypted and mutually authenticated

#transport.host: 0.0.0.0

#----------------------- END SECURITY AUTO CONFIGURATION -------------------------

Hi @coolin_dady,

There could be a few reasons why your Elasticsearch cluster is not accessible. Do you have an errors in the logs at all?

You cant access Elasticsearch thru browser directly, elasticsearch only accessible via APIs.
If you want to access graphical interface in browser, you need to install Kibana alongside with Elasticsearch,

Hi @coolin_dady Welcome to the community!.

Please format your code in the future makes it much easier to read. I did it for you. If you press the edit button you can see what I did.

All right let's debug

What is the result of the following run from the same host that elasticsearch is on.

curl -k -v -u elastic https://172.16.32.99:9200

What happens if you run it from another host that's on the same network?
