I had trouble setting up the docker-compose.yml for development because SSL was enabled. Disabling SSL solved this issue for me.
environment:
- plugins.security.ssl.http.enabled=false
Stating this in the documentation would have saved me a lot of time. I don't think it makes sense to configure certificates for development, right?
Version: all
@d96litz: We do have this section that calls out Docker Compose with the security plugin disabled specifically: https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/install-and-configure/install-opensearch/docker/#sample-docker-compose-file-for-development.
Maybe we could link to that in a place that's more prominent in the Quickstart?
I had the same exact issue, and I came across the Docker compose w/ disabled security docs page after a lot of time. To me, it would make sense to link it directly on the "Quickstart" page, even maybe making it the default way to easily try OpenSearch.
@d96litz I'll add a link in the quickstart. Our current docker compose for development contains these 2 lines that disable the security plugin and demo certificates:
- "DISABLE_INSTALL_DEMO_CONFIG=true" # Prevents execution of bundled demo script which installs demo certificates and security configurations to OpenSearch
- "DISABLE_SECURITY_PLUGIN=true" # Disables Security plugin
Did you still need to add plugins.security.ssl.http.enabled=false? I don't have this on my config, and the cluster works without security.
