Script.painless.regex.enabled: true but ES log says it is not

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

ES 5.6.3

elasticsearch.yml has script.painless.regex.enabled: true

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Regexes are disabled. Set [script.painless.regex.enabled] to [true] in elasticsearch.yaml to allow them. Be careful though, regexes break out of Painless's protection against deep recursion and long loops.

Now what?

Hi Jim,

Would you please attach your elasticsearch.yml file?

Thanks,
Jack

I figured it out. This is not a cluster setting, but an individual node setting. Thus, I had to add it to each node's elasticsearch.yml.
