Hello,
I have successfully installed ELK version 5.1.1
The Elastic , kibana and logstash are up and running
#service elasticsearch start
Starting elasticsearch: [ OK ]
# curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/?pretty'
{
"name" : "5gvYWYb",
"cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
"cluster_uuid" : "54tznb7hTfCWCfVP00SREA",
"version" : {
"number" : "5.1.1",
"build_hash" : "5395e21",
"build_date" : "2016-12-06T12:36:15.409Z",
"build_snapshot" : false,
"lucene_version" : "6.3.0"
},
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}
So far so good.
The problem start when i am trying to connect to the linux machine REMOTHLY .
Or even when i am trying to telnet the machine locally to port 9200 :
# netstat -ntlup|grep 9200
tcp 0 0 ::ffff:127.0.0.1:9200 :::* LISTEN 8950/java
tcp 0 0 ::1:9200 :::* LISTEN 8950/java
As you can see above it listenen to localhost on port 9200
# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
172.22.xxx.x xxxx xxxx.xxx.xxx <<<----My public ip adress
# /sbin/ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:A7:2C:38
inet addr:172.22.xxx.x Bcast:172.22.xxx.xxx Mask:255.xxx.xxx.0
....
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
Also telnet to localhost is ofcorse working :
# telnet localhost 9200
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
But when i am trying to telnet port 9200 by the public ip address i get an error :
# telnet 172.22.xxx.x 9200
Trying 172.22.xxx.x...
telnet: connect to address 172.22.xxx.x: Connection refused
I found here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34449342/installed-elastic-search-on-server-but-cannot-connect-to-it-if-from-another-mach
that i should set network.bind_host: 0.0.0.0 in the elasticsearch.yml
The entry : network.bind_host does not exists in the elasticsearch.yml file
Adding this entry to the yml file cause the elasticsearch to crash upon startup.
I also tried to set :
network.host: 0.0.0.0 in elasticsearch.yml file and restart the elastsearch , but the elasticsearch failed to restart :
# service elasticsearch stop
Stopping elasticsearch: [ OK ]
# service elasticsearch start
Starting elasticsearch: [ OK ]
# curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/?pretty'
curl: (7) couldn't connect to host
Same thing happened when i have tried to set the PUBLIC IP Address :
network.host: 172.22.xxx.x
Please advise how i can enable a remote connection to the elasticsearch version 5.1.1
Regards
