Internal Server Error

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello dear friends :slight_smile: I have a problem. First thing I want to do is: I want to backup the indexes I created before, so I created some folders in "C:\ "and added them to my elasticsearch.yml file.Then I restarted elasticsearch from task manager. Then I ran the kibana.bat file. When I make a query in Kibana, I get an error like "doesn't match any of the locations specified by path.repo because this setting is empty".If I want to create a new repository by following the path below on the kibana side, an error appears in the kiabana.bat file.

my elasticsearch.yml file:

# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------
#
# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
#s
path.data: C:/data
#
# Path to log files:
#
path.logs: C:/logs
path.repo: C:/esbackup
#

The query and error message I'm trying to run on the kibana dev tools side:

PUT /_snapshot/esbackup
{
  "type": "fs",
  "settings": {
    "location": "C:/esbackup",
    "compress": true
  }
}
Error message:

"error" : {
    "root_cause" : [
      {
        "type" : "repository_exception",
        "reason" : "[esbackup] location [C:/esbackup] doesn't match any of the locations specified by path.repo because this setting is empty"
      }
    ],
    "type" : "repository_exception",
    "reason" : "[esbackup] failed to create repository",
    "caused_by" : {
      "type" : "repository_exception",
      "reason" : "[esbackup] location [C:/esbackup] doesn't match any of the locations specified by path.repo because this setting is empty"
    }
  },
  "status" : 500
}

When I want to create a new repository by following this path on the kibana side (Dashboard>Snapshot and Restore>Repositories>Register a repository), the error message I get from the kibana.bat file is:

I would be very happy if you help me :hugs:

Did you get this fixed?
I am guessing you did based on your other topic - Error: Invalid snapshot name snapshot with the same name already in-progress

Yes yes the problem is not caused by my incorrect use of / or . I made a mistake while editing the environment variables.
