Using Scala version 2.13.16 (OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM, Java 17.0.16)

I'm getting this error when writing to an ES 8.19.3 cluster: `java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext org.apache.spark.sql.Dataset.sqlContext()'`

I was using org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch-spark-30\_2.13:8.17.0 before on spark 3.4 with no issues.

I've tried the latest versions of elasticsearch-hadoop for 8.x.x and 9.x.x all giving the above error.

Thank you

Spark 4.x is not currently supported unfortunately.
