Elasticsearch 索引文档到现有索引 504 超时

Question

When I try to index a document that I made an index for using

curl -vvv -XPUT 'https://es/existing_index/existing_or_nonexsitgin_mapping/1?timeout=999h ...document

I get a 504 (despite the timeout I set. The index is currently empty). But when I try to index the document into a nonexisting index it returns successfully immediately:

curl -vvv -XPUT 'https://es/NONEXISTING_index/existing_or_nonexsitgin_mapping/1?timeout=999h ...document

But the index is created incorrectly because I didn't create it.

I use elastic search version 2.3.

Thanks!

Answer 1

I found the problem - the index had a property for amount of shards and replicas which exceeded the actual amount of available shards on the host. Too bad there was no error when creating the index.
