Connecting to Secure Elasticsearch

Post by Grunt »

Is there a setting that I can put into the Elasticsearch config for SSL connections to Elasticsearch?

Hi,

well, Elasticsearch will probably run on a different port, right?

Ya, I've changed my elasticsearch.php config file to

Code: Select all

<?php
$PMF_ES['hosts'] = ['https://elasticsearch.contoso.com:9200'];
$PMF_ES['index'] = 'phpmyfaq';
but it doesn't appear to connect and I'm not seeing any errors with debug enabled.

Any ideas on how to get this to work or troubleshooting steps? Any logging I can enable or a list of variables available?

Hi,

did you try to enable TLS in Elasticsearch this way?

Ya, there's really not any other way to configure it. When hitting the URL, it requests a username/password. Are there variables that can be entered in the elasticsearch.php file for user/pass?

Edit: Actually, I deviated from that process by using a publicly signed wildcard certificate.

Hi,

okay, I'll try that on my local development environment.
