Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch tries to send a response back to a client, but the connection has already been closed. This could be due to network issues, client-side issues, or the client closing the connection before the response is received. To resolve this issue, you can check the network connection, ensure the client is properly configured to wait for a response, or increase the client’s timeout settings. Also, check if there are any heavy operations that might be causing Elasticsearch to respond slowly, and optimize them if possible.
