Upgrading ElasticSearch–Discovery configuration is required in production mode

While preparing for an ElasticSearch upgrade I checked the Upgrade assistant.

One (critical) issue was mentioned: Discovery configuration is required in production mode

Let’s have a look what the documentation has to mention:

Production deployments of Elasticsearch now require at least one of the following settings to be specified in the elasticsearch.yml configuration file:

  • discovery.seed_hosts
  • discovery.seed_providers
  • cluster.initial_master_nodes
  • discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts
  • discovery.zen.hosts_provider

The first three settings in this list are only available in versions 7.0 and above. If you are preparing to upgrade from an earlier version, you must set discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts or discovery.zen.hosts_provider.

In our case we don’t want to form a multiple-node cluster. So we ignore the documentation above and instead change the discovery.type to single-node.

For more information about when you might use this setting, see Single-node discovery.

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete . That should do the trick…
