Please format your code using `</>` icon as explained in [this guide](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21) and not the citation button. It will make your post more readable.

Or use markdown style like:

CODE
```

````

Please edit your post.

You should better remove the settings you added in your `elasticsearch.yml` file IMO.
