![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/3/c/3cb740fb073f2e099b0c51ab44ab758972adf243.png) What does this mean and how can I solve this problem? I haven’t changed any of my config + this just happened very recently. Haven’t updated anything either. I installed elasticsearch from brew. These are some of the error messages — it actually goes on for pages an I don’t know how much I should show you to help you solve this problem for me. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/7/678e8778dbba68ea212098f0aca0ca46194ce7a2.png) ---

actually I believe that this might be relevant bits as this is the first error. How can I get ES to ignore that files that may be missing ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/1/61e6281c435a3dec25131419d233908700a6387b.png) I think that it might be because I have had to stop / restart machine or something… not sure. ---

Don't post images. It's not readable, searchable... ---

alright. In the past when I post text on other help forums, people told me to post images instead… ---

Not here unless it was about a UI like Kibana. Update your post please. ---

np. You can close this now. I actually couldn’t figure out what’s going on and I’ve removed xpack and that solved everything. I mean, I still have the bug but I can no longer grab the same error messages that I screenshotted above… so I will do that in the future. Thanks! ---
