Problems with Elasticsearch.

We have a self hosted Omeka Classi server, running on Almalinux 8. We have been having problems with search (too many results, not able to filter out, etc.)

We installed Elasticsearch v6.x on the server, but we are having problems.

  1. If I enter a basic search → I am getting HTTP ERROR 500.

I don’t see anything in the httpd logs and I am not sure where to locate the problem. I tried disabling SELINUX, but that does not resolve the problem.

  1. Advanced search seems to work, but returns no results when there should be some results.

Where/how can I troubleshoot the 500 errors?

Thank you

The error “Internal server error . Please check your application server logs for more details and contact Elastic support if the problem persists.”

You need to create index before sending data to the elasticsearch

We did attempt to index, however the index runs for only 1 second, so there appears to be multiple problems.
