About Enhanced Search Setup

[CL4Y]

Hello, I installed elasticsearch:9.0.1 via Plesk. However, I can't seem to start it from the XenForo admin panel. Could my steps be incorrect?

Uncheck use HTTPS connection.

Uncheck use HTTPS connection.

Unfortunately, I keep getting an error when I try that too.

'A connection could not be made to the Elasticsearch server.'

Do you have the correct security set?

nano /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml

xpack.security.enabled: false
xxpack.security.http.ssl:
enabled: false
xpack.security.transport.ssl:
enabled: false

nano /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml

xpack.security.enabled: falsexx
pack.security.http.ssl:
enabled: false
xpack.security.transport.ssl:
enabled: false

I don't think it creates this directory when installing via Docker, so I'm trying to install it without Docker now, addressing this issue:

Here is a good guide Andy put together. Your on Ubuntu but the general concept is the same.

Thank you, I was able to complete the installation using the link I sent and the settings you provided.

So, it seems that installation with Docker on Plesk is problematic.

Hello again, is it normal for it to use all the memory on the server? It uses 15GB out of 16GB of memory.

I am not sure about Ubuntu but you can limit your Java resources by setting (Almalinux).

-Xms
-Xmx

Try

-Xms1g
-Xmx1g

The values must be the same
Adjust as necessary.

Thank you, in this case it would be better for me to move forward by switching to Almalinux 9.

You can adjust RAM usage limits by entering the above values (or any values you want) in the config file
Thise numbers are min and max ram size

Depending what distro you are using you will find the file at somewhere like
/etc/elasticsearch/jvm.options.d/jvm.options

I don't really think that is necessary. Your system is working for you.
Follow this for your server.

Does using too much RAM create a disadvantage?

 

[Pauly]

It will take it away form the rest of the system
