UnknownHostException while connecting to Elasticsearch

Enomine · May 27, 2022, 6:31am

Hi,
while doing my first steps with the tutorial

i face much problems even executing the first lines of code.
I get an java.net.UnknownHostException that says "Der angegebene Host ist unbekannt (https://xxx.yyyzzz.com)" which translates to "The specified host is unknown (https://xxx.yyyzzz.com)".
I replaced our companies url with xxx.yyyzzz.

But actually the server is reachable in the browser, and ping is okay, too:

How to solve?

Thanks - Enomine

Welcome!

Please don't post images of text as they are hard to read, may not display correctly for everyone, and are not searchable.

Instead, paste the text and format it with </> icon or pairs of triple backticks (```), and check the preview window to make sure it's properly formatted before posting it. This makes it more likely that your question will receive a useful answer.

It would be great if you could update your post to solve this.

Here a first guess is that you might have a firewall or a proxy?

I can't find any edit-Button, but here we go:

public class ConnectingTest {

	public void createClient() throws Exception {
		// https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-api-client/current/connecting.html

		// Create the low-level client
		RestClient restClient = RestClient.builder(new HttpHost("https://gattinger-second.es.europe-west1.gcp.cloud.es.io", 9243)).build();

		// Create the transport with a Jackson mapper
		ElasticsearchTransport transport = new RestClientTransport(restClient, new JacksonJsonpMapper());

		// And create the API client
		ElasticsearchClient client = new ElasticsearchClient(transport);

		SearchResponse<Product> search = client.search(s -> s.index("products").query(q -> q.term(t -> t.field("name").value(v -> v.stringValue("bicycle")))), Product.class);

		// SearchResponse<Product> search2 = client.search

		for (Hit<Product> hit : search.hits().hits()) {
			processProduct(hit.source());
		}

	}

	private void processProduct(Product p) {
		System.out.println("ConnectingText -> process Product -> " + p.getName() + " " + p.getPrice() + " " + p.getSku() + " " + p.getClass());
	}

}

Solution:

RestClient restClient = RestClient.builder(new HttpHost("gattinger-second.es.europe-west1.gcp.cloud.es.io", 9243, "https")).build();

Putting https as a parameter.

Then we come 1 line ahead:

Exception in thread "main" co.elastic.clients.elasticsearch._types.ElasticsearchException: [es/search] failed: [security_exception] missing authentication credentials for REST request [/products/_search?typed_keys=true]
	at co.elastic.clients.transport.rest_client.RestClientTransport.getHighLevelResponse(RestClientTransport.java:281)

	at main.Main.main(Main.java:9)

Failure in Line 147 instead of 146

I'd recommend using:

RestClient restClient = RestClient.builder(HttpHost.create("https://gattinger-second.es.europe-west1.gcp.cloud.es.io:9243")).build();

That could make your life easier

dadoonet · May 30, 2022, 10:11am

The next problem is that you need to provide some credentials.
Like:

final CredentialsProvider credentialsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
credentialsProvider.setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY, new UsernamePasswordCredentials("elastic", "changeme"));

RestClient restClient = RestClient.builder(HttpHost.create("https://gattinger-second.es.europe-west1.gcp.cloud.es.io:9243"))
                .setHttpClientConfigCallback(hcb -> hcb.setDefaultCredentialsProvider(credentialsProvider))
                .build();

Something like this.

Hi,
thanks for your help. Got it to work right now:

public void createClient() throws Exception {
		// https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-api-client/current/connecting.html
		// https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-api-client/current/_basic_authentication.html

		final CredentialsProvider credentialsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
		credentialsProvider.setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY, new UsernamePasswordCredentials("elastic", "changeme"));
		HttpClientConfigCallback httpClientConfigCallback = new HttpClientConfigCallback() {
			@Override
			public HttpAsyncClientBuilder customizeHttpClient(HttpAsyncClientBuilder httpClientBuilder) {
				httpClientBuilder.disableAuthCaching();
				return httpClientBuilder.setDefaultCredentialsProvider(credentialsProvider);
			}
		};

		// Create the low-level client
		RestClientBuilder restClientBuilder = RestClient.builder(new HttpHost("gattinger-second.es.europe-west1.gcp.cloud.es.io", 9243, "https"));
		restClientBuilder.setHttpClientConfigCallback(httpClientConfigCallback);
		RestClient restClient = restClientBuilder.build();
		

		// Create the transport with a Jackson mapper
		ElasticsearchTransport transport = new RestClientTransport(restClient, new JacksonJsonpMapper());

		// And create the API client
		ElasticsearchClient client = new ElasticsearchClient(transport);

		SearchResponse<Product> search = client.search(s -> s.index("products").query(q -> q.term(t -> t.field("name").value(v -> v.stringValue("bicycle")))), Product.class);
		System.out.println("SearchResponse erfolgreich. Anzahl: " + search.hits().hits().size());

Do you actually know why the program is not terminating after this code? In eclipse it stays as running until i hit the stop button.

Thanks - Enomine

dadoonet · June 1, 2022, 9:17am

Probably because you did not close the client?

Enomine · June 1, 2022, 11:04am

Oh! right, thanks!
