Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch encounters an unrecognized or deprecated configuration setting in the elasticsearch.yml file. This could be due to a typo, incorrect syntax, or using a setting that has been removed in the current version of Elasticsearch. To resolve this issue, you should first check the setting for any typos or syntax errors. If the setting is correct, verify if it’s still supported in your Elasticsearch version. If it’s deprecated, you’ll need to find and use the updated setting. Always ensure your configuration settings are compatible with your Elasticsearch version.
