Magento – Magento 2 and ElasticSearch errors. Connection Failed. Test again

curlelasticsearchmagento2.2.3

i need some help with configuring my elastic search on magento 2.2.3 and i'm using ES 2.3.

I login and configure here: Click Stores > Settings > Configuration > Catalog > Catalog > Catalog Search.

It's on a remote aws server and i know it's configured on port 443 so i changed the port to 443 rather than 9200 and i've changed the Elasticsearch Server Hostname to the correct endpoint.

  • telnet from admin to ES works

as does curl

  • so not a network / firewall iss
  • Elasticsearch Index Prefix is correct
  • cluster name is correct

After that i followed these instructions here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticsearch-service/latest/developerguide/es-gsg-upload-data.html

  • I was able to upload a new search document and then I was able to retrieve it as well. So once again the networking between the two is good.

Is there a php dependency that i'm missing or a third party magento plugin that needs to be installed to assist? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately I also had this problem, I figured the best solution was to use Nginx to proxy HTTP requests internally through to AWS ElasticSearch. The config is:

server {
    server_name localhost;
    listen 8080;

    location / {
        proxy_pass https://your-amazon-vpc-url-here.es.amazonaws.com;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    }
}

Within Magento2 then I set host as localhost and port as 8080 - works fine.
