Opensearch dashboards server is not ready yet

Explanation:

The error message “OpenSearch Dashboards server is not ready yet” usually occurs when the OpenSearch Dashboards server is not fully initialized or has encountered an error during startup.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:

  1. Make sure the OpenSearch Dashboards server is running and properly configured.
  2. Check the server logs for any error messages or stack traces that can provide more information about the issue.
  3. If you recently made changes to the server configuration, double-check your modifications and ensure they are correct.

  3. If you see any error messages or stack traces in the logs, analyze them to identify the cause of the issue. It could be due to a misconfiguration or a conflict with other running services.
  4. If you recently made changes to the OpenSearch Dashboards configuration files, revert those changes and restart the server to see if the issue is resolved.
