Solution

Your issue is related to ElasticSearch configuration.

Execute the following steps to ensure that your ElasticSearch related configuration is correct.

  1. Verify your Java version. If it is never than the ones we currently support, that might still work, but please verify that the Java path is set correctly (see the next step).
  2. Verify (and update) your JAVA_HOME path. This might get outdated after a Java version upgrade.
  3. Verify (and update) the certificate used by the ElasticSearch. This might get outdated after a certificate update on your FogBugz server.
