Elasticsearch setup:upgrade error: No handler for type [text] declared on field [search]

Question

I am trying to install smile/elasticsuite using composer but I am getting a really strange error.

To install the module I used:

composer require smile/elasticsuite:2.6.0

And got successful response:

./composer.json has been updated
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Package operations: 5 installs, 0 updates, 0 removals

Package sjparkinson/static-review is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use phpro/grumphp instead.

Then run following:

bin/magento setup:upgrade

bin/magento cache:flush

Now, on the front-end, I get the following error message:

Please upgrade your database: Run "bin/magento setup:upgrade" from the Magento root directory.
The following modules are outdated:
Smile_ElasticsuiteCatalog data: current version - none, required version - 1.5.0
Smile_ElasticsuiteCatalogRule data: current version - none, required version - 1.0.0
Smile_ElasticsuiteCatalogOptimizer data: current version - none, required version - 1.1.0

Smile_ElasticsuiteThesaurus data: current version - none, required version - 1.0.0
Smile_ElasticsuiteTracker data: current version - none, required version - 1.2.0
Smile_ElasticsuiteVirtualCategory data: current version - none, required version - 1.3.0

Updates the Magento software doesn't do anything.

Any ideas?

UPDATE

After adding the missing configurations, I get an error on bin/magento setup:upgrade:

{
   "error": {
      "root_cause": [
         {
            "type": "mapper_parsing_exception",
            "reason": "No handler for type [text] declared on field [search]"
         }
      ],
      "type": "mapper_parsing_exception",
      "reason": "No handler for type [text] declared on field [search]"
   },
   "status": 400
}

UPDATE 2:

Result of curl:

  "name" : "Squidboy",
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "cluster_uuid" : "0L1pnmTiQBaWL21J5p5iPw",
  "version" : {

}

Answer 1

Please make sure your ElasticServer is up and running. You can use the following CLI commands to test the availability and the outcome:

curl localhost:9200

{
  "name" : "xN9wlEs",
  "cluster_name" : "clustername",
  "cluster_uuid" : "DC9ipvdISOyw0i3dqsrTzQ",
  "version" : {
    "number" : "6.4.0",
    "build_flavor" : "default",
    "build_type" : "zip",
    "build_hash" : "595516e",
    "build_date" : "2018-08-17T23:18:47.308994Z",
    "build_snapshot" : false,
    "lucene_version" : "7.4.0",
    "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
    "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
  },
  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}

Pleas keep in mind that the ElasticSuite ^2.6 supports ElasticSearch 6.x so use it. A lot of things got fixed enhanced on that version. Also ElasticSuite ^2.6 is not compatible with ElasticSearch 2.x.

Installing ElasticSearch 6.x

For a detailed instruction "tutorial" please refer to the official Smile_Elasticsuite documentary to get everything correct

https://github.com/Smile-SA/elasticsuite/wiki/ServerConfig-5.x#installing-elasticsearch

After you installed and configured ElasticSearch and ElasticSuite do the following steps:

bin/magento setup:upgrade

bin/magento setup:di:compile

bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

Clear magento Cache

Answer 2

This module need running elasticsearch and need pre-configuration. So open app/etc/env.php and added this after install index:

'system' => [
    'default' => [
        'smile_elasticsuite_core_base_settings' => [
            'es_client' => [
                'servers' => 'localhost:9200',
                'enable_https_mode' => 0,
                'enable_http_auth' => 0,
                'http_auth_user' => '',
                'http_auth_pwd' => '',
                'scheme' => 'http'
            ]
        ]
    ]
]

Now looks like

'install' => [
'date' => 'Sat, 02 Jun 2018 13:40:02 +0000'
],
'system' => [
    'default' => [
        'smile_elasticsuite_core_base_settings' => [
            'es_client' => [
                'servers' => 'localhost:9200',
                'enable_https_mode' => 0,
                'enable_http_auth' => 0,
                'http_auth_user' => '',
                'http_auth_pwd' => '',
                'scheme' => 'http'
            ]
        ]
    ]
]

Now run setup:upgrade command.

Answer 3

That means you didn't enable these Modules before setup upgrade.

run: bin/magento module:enable --all

after that run bin/magento setup:upgrade

just before your answer updated. You must install Elastic Server before config elastic to connect. ------------ DONE Update 1:

------------ Next Update about error text

I think that you have installed the newest version of Elastic on the server. You must use Elastic 2.4.4 it as stable as newest with Magento 2

Which version should I use ?

Magento Version ElasticSuite Latest Version
Magento 2.0.x Opensource (CE) / Commerce (EE)   ElasticSuite 2.1.x latest release : composer require smile/elasticsuite ^2.1.0
Magento 2.1.x Opensource (CE) / Commerce (EE)   ElasticSuite 2.3.x latest release : composer require smile/elasticsuite ^2.3.0
Magento 2.2.x Opensource (CE) / Commerce (EE)   ElasticSuite 2.6.x latest release : composer require smile/elasticsuite ^2.6.0
