Hello. As far as I can tell everything is setup correctly, elastic indexes content but the search page returns a blank page.

The port appears to be open and listening. here is the config data. Thank you.

 

These are the settings from elastic

Elasticsearch Server: http://localhost:9200

Elasticsearch Index Name: node1

/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml looks like this

node.name: node1
node.attr.rack: r1

path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch

network.host: localhost
http.port: 9200

Anyone? why would elastic return a blank page?

A blank page would typically mean that PHP encountered a fatal error. Your server PHP error log should contain further information about the issue.

Thank you. This is what I found. must be related to the blank page?

The error message suggests you are missing a necessary php extension (php_xsl).
