Hi all, I just followed the guide to create elasticsearch on ubuntu. It works fine when I access it through [http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200). But when I try to connect to it through the java client, at port 9300, it throws an error at me. 12/06/21 10:23:31 WARN client.transport: [Stryfe] failed to get node info for [#transport#-1][inet[/localhost:9300]] org.elasticsearch.transport.RemoteTransportException: [Tinkerer][inet[/127.0.0.1:9300]][] Caused by: org.elasticsearch.transport.ActionNotFoundTransportException: No handler for action [] I think it is a problem of configuration. could someone give me a suggestion what might be missing? I have the following in my /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml file: cluster.name: elasticsearch path.data: /var/data/elasticsearch network.bind\_host: 127.0.0.1 network.publish\_host: 127.0.0.1 network.host: 127.0.0.1 transport.tcp.port: 9300 Thank you.

hi David, Thanks for the reply. here's how I initialized the client. ``` public Client newSearchClient() { String host = "127.0.0.1"; int port = 9300; InetSocketTransportAddress address = new ``` InetSocketTransportAddress(host, port); return new TransportClient().addTransportAddress( address ); } The exception was thrown from "addTransportAddress". I'm using a version 0.18.5 client on a 0.19.4 server. could this be a problem? Thank you.
