I want to create a simple java program for elastic search. from the documentations and examples i came up with the following ``` package testListJava; import static org.elasticsearch.node.NodeBuilder.nodeBuilder; import org.elasticsearch.action.get.GetResponse; import org.elasticsearch.client.Client; import org.elasticsearch.node.Node; public class test { public static void main(String[] args) { Node node = nodeBuilder().clusterName("mycluster1").node(); Client client = node.client(); GetResponse response = client.prepareGet("abc", "def", "1") .execute() .actionGet(); System.out.println(response.toString()); System.out.println("-----------------------------------"); } } ``` But I am not able to get the response. I get the following error. Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.elasticsearch.common.settings.Settings.settingsBuilder()Lorg/elasticsearch/common/settings/Settings$Builder; at org.elasticsearch.node.NodeBuilder.(NodeBuilder.java:57) at org.elasticsearch.node.NodeBuilder.nodeBuilder(NodeBuilder.java:63) at testListJava.test.main(test.java:12) what should I do? I am using elasticsearch-5.5.2. openjdk version "1.8.0\_111" Eclipse Platform Version: Luna SR1 (4.4.1) ---

No dependency here. Your Artifact coordinates are wrong BTW. ---

Sounds like you're pretty much where I am. See this thread: [ElasticSearch, NetBeans, Maven and Java](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/elasticsearch-netbeans-maven-and-java/99976) It's got my notes on setting up a simple java program to use elasticsearch under NetBeans. The doco elastic gives us is less than helpful... I'm writing code to index new data, but the only difference between that and a search should be the action call towards the end of the try loop. That's probably what I'll try next. (I did index first so I'd have something to search for. 😉) ---

TransportClient does not use port 9200 but 9300. Also what are the elasticsearch logs? (server side) ---

Elasticsearch is bound to 127.0.0.1. If `host1` is anything else than `127.0.0.1` it will not work. If you want to call elasticsearch from another machine, you need to change `network.host` in `elasticsearch.yml`. In such a case, read: - [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/important-settings.html#network.host](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/important-settings.html#network.host) - [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/bootstrap-checks.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/bootstrap-checks.html) ```auto [2017-09-12T14:00:35,999][WARN][o.e.t.n.Netty4Transport] [_-RF39w] exception caught on transport layer [[id: 0x3121287e, L:/127.0.0.1:56846 - R:/127.0.0.1:9300]], closing connection java.io.IOException: Invalid string; unexpected character: 253 hex: fd ``` ^^^ Was that you attempt to use 9200 port instead of 9300? ---

I have not made any attempt to use 9200 port instead of 9300. In curl request I am able to elastic search in 127.0.0.1:9200. I now found that in localhost:9200 I have cluster named elasticsearch and no indexes in it. And in 127.0.0.1:9200 I have a cluster named mycluster1 and I have 3 indexes in it which is the one I am trying to query. ---
