Question

I am trying to install Magento 2.4 in my localhost. I am using Linux Mint 19.1 as my OS. First I downloaded Magento 2.4 using below command.

composer create-project --repository-url=https://repo.magento.com/ magento/project-community-edition magentotest

I tried to install Magento 2.4 using below command.

php bin/magento setup:install --base-url=http://127.0.0.1/magentotest/ \
--db-host=localhost --db-name=magentotest --db-user=root --db-password=root \

I am getting below error while trying to run above command.

Could not validate a connection to Elasticsearch. No alive nodes found in your cluster

I installed JDK and elastic search.

But I am getting below screen while trying to browse Magento 2.4

What is the solution ? How to install Magento 2.4 in Linux Mint ?

Answer 1

You should change --elasticsearch-host=es-host.example.com to --elasticsearch-host=localhost

Elasticsearch for Magento 2.4.x must be 7.x version

Latest Elasticsearch version

Hope that it resolves your problem. :)
