Hi
To quote a post from the 2019 discussion:
To be honest I believe that most are not going to be able to set it up.
Unfortunately the set up explanation is rather poor for those who are not Linux Systems Administrators and throws various disencouraging sentences like:
. “Please keep in mind this guide is not suitable for setting up a production Elasticsearch server.”
–> So how do you do it for production?. “Be sure that the current user belongs to the docker group or you’ll receive permission issues.”
–> How do you do it?. “Start Elasticsearch. This is ideal for a test/development server.”
–> Same as above!. “Create a new docker-compose.yml file or add the elasticsearch configuration your pre-existing docker-compose.”
–> Where? How?. “And start with:”
–> What happens then?. “You might need to tweak the OpenJDK version to match the one available for your distribution.”
–> Great! Any details?. “And you should receive something like this:”
–> What if you don’t?. “Note that the current set up does not provide authentication. Remember to secure your Elasticsearch server before going to production, or your data will be vulnerable!”
–> How?…
Furthermore:
How about those on shared servers with limited access to system commands? I assume that they cannot installi it!
Does it have to be installed on the same machine as the webserver or should it go elsewhere?
If it goes elsewhere how do you configure it in SuiteCRM?
…
I don’t think it’s going to be an easy journey for anyone except Linux system administrators (and still I am not sure they will manage easily!!!)
Has anyone set Elasticsearch on SuiteCRM 8? Can you help?
