[Solved] Create() got an unexpected keyword argument 'include_type_name'

[cecoke]

Hi,

I am getting an error when running "esrally --track http_logs --target-hosts 172.31.13.142:9200 --pipeline benchmark-only --test-mode"

Running delete-index [100% done]
Running create-index [ 0% done]
[ERROR] Cannot race. Error in load generator [0]
create() got an unexpected keyword argument 'include_type_name'

This is what's in the log.

The environment is esrally 1.0.3 on Ubuntu.

The error seems to be caused by the cluster on v7.0. I restarted the cluster on v6 and that fixed the issue.

Thanks for the report.

TL;DR for now is that if you want to benchmark Elasticsearch 7, you'll need to use the development version of Rally.

The issue here is that we added this parameter in the master branch of the rally-tracks repo a few days ago to support benchmarking 7.0, however, the elasticsearch-python client that Rally uses doesn't support the parameter. So Rally has been updated to support it, however, if you want to benchmark Elasticsearch master you'll need to use the development version of Rally until a new Rally release happens.

In your case, Rally will use/checkout the right branch of Rally tracks depending on the detected Elasticsearch version, so by switching to a v6 cluster it uses branch 6 which doesn't have this parameter.

Btw we've also added the missing parameter in the elasticsearch-py library but this also requires a new release.
