This is the error I am getting: Exiting: couldn't connect to any of the configured Elasticsearch hosts. Errors: [error connecting to Elasticsearch at [http://10.0.0.132:9200](http://10.0.0.132:9200): Get "[http://10.0.0.132:9200](http://10.0.0.132:9200)": EOF]

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================
#
# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.
# Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you
# understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.
#
# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists
# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.
#
# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html
#
# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:
#
#cluster.name: my-application
#
# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for the node:
#
node.name: ELK
#
# Add custom attributes to the node:
#
#node.attr.rack: r1
#
# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------
#
# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
#
path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch
#
# Path to log files:
#
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch
#
# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------
#
# Lock the memory on startup:
#
#bootstrap.memory_lock: true
#
# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available
# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this
# limit.
#
# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.
#
# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------
#
# By default Elasticsearch is only accessible on localhost. Set a different
# address here to expose this node on the network:
#
network.host: 0.0.0.0
#discovery.seed_hosts: ["host1"]
#cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["node-1"]
#
# By default Elasticsearch listens for HTTP traffic on the first free port it
# finds starting at 9200. Set a specific HTTP port here:
#
http.port: 9200
#
# For more information, consult the network module documentation.
#
# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------
#
# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when this node is started:
# The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]
#
discovery.seed_hosts: ["10.0.0.132", "host2"]

# Bootstrap the cluster using an initial set of master-eligible nodes:

Someone please help.. I have been at this for the last 8 hours, and really cant figure it out. I have visited every single google search possible.

Im new to ELK stack. I greatly appreciate anyones assistance here 😑

Edit: I can ping and telnet elasticsearch  
Edit2: Almost positive this is a certificate problem, just unsure how to correct it

Hello @Nightshade

Welcome to Elastic Community 😃 !!!

could you try executing this below commands and let us know the results

```auto
filebeat test config

filebeat test output

```

This would validate your configuration and the 2nd command would do a connection test between your filebeat and Elasticsearch

Keep Posted !!! Thanks 🙂 !!!

</div>

```auto
Before your response I added

 output.elasticsearch:
   # Array of hosts to connect to.
   hosts: ["localhost:9200"]
 
  # Protocol - either `http` (default) or `https`.
   #protocol: "https"

   # Authentication credentials - either API key or username/password.
   #api_key: "id:api_key"
   ssl.verification_mode: "none"
   username: "elastic"
  password: "pass"

```

I then tried to curl

```auto
curl -u elastic http://10.0.0.132:9200
Enter host password for user 'elastic':
curl: (52) Empty reply from server

```

Then https curl:

```auto
 curl -u elastic https://10.0.0.132:9200
Enter host password for user 'elastic':
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain
More details here: https://curl.se/docs/sslcerts.html

```

Doing what you suggested gave the following:

```auto
scarecrow@ELK:/etc/filebeat$ sudo filebeat test config
[sudo] password for scarecrow: 
Config OK

```

```auto
scarecrow@ELK:/etc/filebeat$ sudo filebeat test config
[sudo] password for scarecrow: 
Config OK
scarecrow@ELK:/etc/filebeat$ sudo filebeat test output
elasticsearch: http://localhost:9200...
  parse url... OK
  connection...
    parse host... OK
    dns lookup... OK
    addresses: ::1, 127.0.0.1
    dial up... OK
  TLS... WARN secure connection disabled
  talk to server... ERROR Get "http://localhost:9200": EOF

```

This was what I thought. I have been trying to follow the guides on here for fixing TLS and am having issues.. I appreciate your response!

@Nightshade

There is issue with self signed certificate by seeing curl

I suppose the mentioned url in filebeat seems to be wrong by seeing the curl . Because i could see an https url .

Are you using https url for elasticsearch? if then please provide the same url in output.elasticsearch. As the output of **filebeat test config** command clearly shows that you have mentioned an http url

This error is in elasticsearch,try disabling the xpack security until you fix certificate issue.
