I have setup rally on my local mac and trying to index Elastic search with my custom data. Though the file containing the data is present in the specified directory , rally throws an error message saying the file is not available for the race. Any help is appreciated.

I figured it out. The issue was due to the incorrect number of document specification in the track.json
