Describe the issue:
I have config the Opensearch and Opensearch Dashboard as the Documents say, but only my Opensearch server (https://localhost:9200) is running, while the Opensearch Dashboards always fail to start. These are the logs of Opensearch Dashboard:
it seems like my certificate is not correct. There is no clear guide of how to generate certificate for Opensearch Dashboard, so i just do the same as the Opensearch guide. Is that likely the problem?
In your opensearch.yml you have SSL enabled but in your opensearch_dashboards.yml you are still pointing to http: opensearch.host ["http://localhost:9200"] shouldn’t it be opensearch.host ["https://localhost:9200"]
One more thing - according to docs the " Path to the X.509 node certificate chain (PEM format), which must be under the config directory, specified using a relative path." see here:
Well to your first question, in my opensearch_dashboards.yml i think i already set my opensearch.hosts to https://localhost:9200 already in the forth line in this image:
And i dont really understand your second note. Since i dont see any config directory in my /etc/opensearch-dashboards/, i decided to create one /etc/opensearch-dashboards/config and store all the certs and keys in that directory. Is there anything wrong with it?
Would you mind opening a new forum for your new issue? I think it will be easier for the community to “chip in” and/or follow if users are dealing with similar issues.
