I don't think it's related to username/password. This seems networking related. It could be a firewall, or http vs https. Make sure you can reach these URLs in a browser or with CURL.
Because my cluster uses xpack certificate, when I try to use certificate authentication, it prompts x509 error. Now I use the user name and password, and then skip SSL authentication, which is currently working properly
Hello I have a similar issue but a little different. If I try to provide the elastic username and password as part of the URI, it works fine however, if I set the ES_PASSWORD and ES_USERNAME env variables, I get 401 while trying to connect to the elastic master node. Did someone else encountered this issue? My elastic version is 7.10.1 and i'm using the lastest version of the exporter.
@ggeo1992 I have encountered the same issue. The support for env variables was only merged recently: https://github.com/prometheus-community/elasticsearch_exporter/commit/80e25faf48ff6283cfcb9e560e44b0f7b20976ab Using the image with tag master works as expected.
I was about to comment that I'm seeing the same issue as @ggeo1992, but after looking into what you mention, @nvollmar, I see that the release currently tagged as latest, v1.2.1, is 3 months old and thus older than the env variable support. That explains it.
Chiming in one year later.
Is there a fix to this? I have tried several settings, the only thing working was to put the credentials in the URL and ignore SSL like @ktpktr0 suggested, which works like a charm, but this should not be the solution.
When using the certificate I get a 509 error complaining about the self-signed certificate When changing from https to http I get a 401 error that it can't log in
Using
- Elasticsearch 8.4.0
- elasticsearch_exporter quay.io/prometheuscommunity/elasticsearch-exporter tag: v1.5.0
ES_USERNAME and ES_PASSWORD are working fine as long as no any reserved character is used (RFC 3986). This is my initial conclusion but I may be wrong
