```

this is my ElasticConfig class.

Spring Boot version: 3.2.5  
Spring-Data-Elasticsearch Version: 5.2.5  
Elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client Version: 7.17.21

Below code is my first try code.

```auto
@Configuration
@EnableElasticsearchRepositories(basePackages = "*")
public class ElasticSearchConfiguration {

    @Bean(destroyMethod = "close")
    public RestHighLevelClient restClient() {

        String host = "127.0.0.1";
        int port = 9200;

        final CredentialsProvider credentialsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
        RestClientBuilder builder = RestClient
                .builder(new HttpHost(host, port))
                .setDefaultHeaders(new Header[]{
                        new BasicHeader("Content-type", "application/json")
                })
                .setHttpClientConfigCallback(httpClientBuilder -> httpClientBuilder.setDefaultCredentialsProvider(credentialsProvider));
        RestHighLevelClient client = new RestHighLevelClient(builder);

        return client;
    }
}

```

Below code is my second try code.

```auto
@Configuration
@EnableElasticsearchRepositories(basePackages = "*")
public class ElasticSearchConfiguration extends ElasticsearchConfiguration {
    @Override
    public ClientConfiguration clientConfiguration() {

        Supplier<HttpHeaders> headersSupplier = () -> {
            HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
            headers.add("Content-Type", "application/json");
            return headers;
        };

        return ClientConfiguration.builder()
                .connectedTo("localhost:9200")
                .withHeaders(headersSupplier)
                .build();
    }

}

```

Welcome!

What is Elasticsearch server version?

I'm not sure you are really using what you think:

> Elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client Version: 7.17.21

Because of this log line:

```
at co.elastic.clients.elasticsearch.indices.ElasticsearchIndicesClient.create(ElasticsearchIndicesClient.java:266) ~[elasticsearch-java-8.10.4.jar:na]

```

Which indicates that you are using the new Java Client (which is a good idea).

First of all, really thanks for your response.

And secondly i am really new in elasticsearch. ((:

Before the start my project, i started an elasticsearch instances on docker.

```auto
docker run --name mutevelli-elasticsearch -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -e "discovery.type=single-node" docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.10.2

```

My goal is to save the models I created to elasticsearch.

This is my second error.

```auto
Caused by: org.springframework.data.elasticsearch.UncategorizedElasticsearchException: [es/indices.create] failed: [content_type_header_exception] java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: only one Content-Type header should be provided

```

And my configuration is like below code.

```auto
@Configuration
@EnableElasticsearchRepositories(basePackages = "*")
public class ElasticSearchConfiguration extends ElasticsearchConfiguration {
    @Override
    public ClientConfiguration clientConfiguration() {

        Supplier<HttpHeaders> headersSupplier = () -> {
            HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
            headers.add("Content-Type", "application/json");
            return headers;
        };

        return ClientConfiguration.builder()
                .connectedTo("localhost:9200")
                .withHeaders(headersSupplier)
                .build();

Don't use `docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.10.2`. It's too old.  
Instead run with 8.13.3.

I think this will solve most of your problems.

Firstly, i deleted my all docker containers and i am running try elasticsearch offical guide.

And my elasticsearch running on 0.0.0.0 host and 5601 port

After than I change my config class like below.

```auto
@Configuration
@EnableElasticsearchRepositories(basePackages = "*")
public class ElasticSearchConfiguration extends ElasticsearchConfiguration {
    @Override
    public ClientConfiguration clientConfiguration() {

        Supplier<HttpHeaders> headersSupplier = () -> {
            HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
            headers.add("Content-Type", "application/json");
            return headers;
        };

        return ClientConfiguration.builder()
                .connectedTo("http://0.0.0.0:5601/")
                .withHeaders(headersSupplier)
                .build();
    }

```

But now this error,

```auto

This is Kibana

```
.connectedTo("http://0.0.0.0:5601/")

```

Not Elasticsearch...
