Reindex error!

[Alexandros888]

Hello,

I use elk version: v 7.7.1

I am using this command to reindex:

POST _reindex
{
"source": {
  "index": "logs-gelf-2020.07.06-000057"
}, 
"dest": {
  "index": "tempconnect5"
}
}

But i get that response:

{
  "error" : {
    "root_cause" : [
      {
        "type" : "parse_exception",
        "reason" : "request body is required"
      }
    ],
    "type" : "parse_exception",
    "reason" : "request body is required"
  },
  "status" : 400
}

When i search for the tempconnect5 index i see it in index management:

but doesnt have the size of the original index named: logs-gelf-2020.07.06-000057

what am i doing wrong?

Thank you

That seems really weird. What do your Elasticsearch logs show at about the time you ran the reindex?

Hello Mark,

i reproduce one case in order to check the elasticsearch logs as you proposed.

I gave my name to the new index to trace logs quicker

The results are the following:

Any help?

Thank you

In order also to provide newest update on the initial index tempconnect5 i see now in index management that it is fully created and usable.

I just cant explain why i have that 400 error message during the reindex operation..

Thank you

You need to check your Elasticsearch logs.
