I just started the Elasticsearch Engineer 2 on-demand training and loaded up the new Strigo machine. I can log in, obtain the public address, navigate to it, and see the instructions/index.html "Welcome to Elasticsearch Engineer 2" page.
Unfortunately, it seems like Elasticsearch and Kibana aren't running on that machine.
Search page: "Sorry, there is an internal problem. This search application cannot connect to Elasticsearch. Make sure Elasticsearch is running and listening on 'http://server1:9200'. Response Error: Error: No Living connections"
Kibana page: "502 Bad Gateway nginx/1.18.0"
I also had this same problem with the Elastic Engineer 1 training a few days ago.
The lab exercises are one of the main selling points for this training, and it's not cheap. I'm quite disappointed by these technical problems.
