'elasticsearch' is not a registered wp command

[alagirirajesh]

I am trying to install elasticsearch and have following the instructions as much as possible. But i am getting the above error when i am running the command "wp elasticpress index --setup --network-wide".

Also i am using wpmudev's directory plugin uses custom fields. Can you please let me know if the current version of elasticpress supports custom fields.

Please help. As i did not know where to ask for support writing here. if you can answer or direct me to a place where i can get support should be good.

Hi @alagirirajesh,
Based on the title of this issue, it sounds like you're actually running the command:

wp elasticsearch index --setup --network-wide

This will give you the exact message as the title of this issue - because elasticsearch is not the name of a command that the ElasticPress plugin implements. The command name is elasticpress. You should try:

wp elasticpress index --setup --network-wide

Hope that helps

I am running wp elasticpress index --setup and get the same error. Running wp help I can see that elasticpress is not an option in wp yet. In the bin/wp-cli.php file I can see that this is where the elasticpress command is supposed to be added to wp-cli, but for whatever reason this code hasn't run yet. Is there something I need to do to get this file to run?

Did you activate ElasticPress?

Yes, the problem seems to be that I have wordpress in a subdirectory and it can't find WP_CLI to add the elasticpress command to WP_CLI.

I was having the same problem when running it on a hgv machine, but in that case you have to run

wp ep4wpe index --setup --network-wide

I was able to fix this by changing WP_CONTENT_DIR in wp-config file, ./content being the path to your wp-content location.

I was using:
define('WP_CONTENT_DIR', realpath($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/content'));
And changed it to:
define('WP_CONTENT_DIR', realpath(dirname(__FILE__) . '/content'));

wp-cli could now find my project and the elasticpress command was added.
