ElasticSearch not working - Transport Error

[Diego Martinez]

Hi everybody:

I have installed ElasticSearch 1.9.0 and Wagtail 1.6 in my virtualenv. in my base.py i added:

WAGTAILSEARCH_BACKENDS = {

    'default': {

        'BACKEND': 'wagtail.wagtailsearch.backends.elasticsearch.ElasticSearch',

        'URLS': ['http://locahost:9200'],  #i try with localhost:8000, not working too

        'AUTO_UPDATE': False,

        'INDEX': '<nameOfMyProject>',

        'TIMEOUT':5,

    },

}

In the model, i added:

search_fields = (

        index.SearchField('c1_title_fr', partial_match=True, boost=10),

        index.SearchField('c1_subtitle_fr', partial_match=True, boost=10),

        index.SearchField('c2_title_fr', partial_match=True),

        index.SearchField('c2_subtitle_fr', partial_match=True),

        index.SearchField('simulator_title_fr', partial_match=True),

        index.SearchField('simulator_text_fr', partial_match=True),

        index.SearchField('benefits_title_fr', partial_match=True),

        index.SearchField('app_text_fr', partial_match=True),

)

But when i make 'python manage.py update_index', i have this error: 

elasticsearch.exceptions.ConnectionError: ConnectionError(<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f7db56a2780>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused) caused by: NewConnectionError(<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f7db56a2780>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused)

if i change 'URLS' to ['http:localhost:8000] and i make 'runserver' in 8000 port,the error is:

elasticsearch.exceptions.TransportError: TransportError(302, '')

Any idea to solve it?

Thx

It looks like you installed the elasticsearch bindings.  But did you install and start elasticsearch itself?
To install elasticsearch you basically just have to unzip the package.
To start it in daemon mode run something like this from the command line:
elasticsearch-1.7.5/bin/elasticsearch  -d

If you haven't modifed the default configuration, the port should be 9200.

Try running "curl http://localhost:9200" to check if Elasticsearch is running.

The service was inactive. now is ok the elasticsearch server,thanks,but i have this error when i make a search:

TransportError(404, 'IndexMissingException[[wagtail] missing]')

i think,the parameter INDEX in WAGTAILSEARCH_BACKENDS is bad. Can you explain me that index name i should put?

[Diego Martinez]

i made ./manage.py update_index and is OK, thanks for the responses.
