What version of Elasticsearch are you trying to connect to?

I do not know of a written description of what is compatible with what. The code is [here](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-output-elasticsearch/blob/fe0a24135a6f18f64415a116f09bc5418b83f15e/lib/logstash/outputs/elasticsearch/http_client/pool.rb#L279) (that if/elsif/else block is returning false, which can happen in several ways). It hits the Elasticsearch root URL, parses the JSON it gets back, and checks some of the values.

Elasticsearch 7.7 is [EOL](https://www.elastic.co/support/eol) and no longer supported. Please upgrade ASAP.
