How to fix Elasticsearch “Invalid index and/or indexing error”

Question

I had to format my computer, when setting up my local environment again with Elasticsearch, I got this error:

{"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"index_not_found_exception","reason":"no such index","resource.type":"index_or_alias","resource.id":"model","index_uuid":"_na_","index":"model"}],"type":"index_not_found_exception","reason":"no such index","resource.type":"index_or_alias","resource.id":"model","index_uuid":"_na_","index":"model"},"status":404}

The solution was to run the following

bundle exec rake elasticsearch:reload

In some cases you may need to run it this way

bundle exec rake elasticsearch:reload[instance]
