Question: user authentication for https

[duongpc]

If I use default official elasticsearch image and enable https, it will be asking for authentication using user elastic with default password changeme.

For this image after enabling https I tried the same username/password and it didn't work. Is there any steps to setup the superuser account or it is not possible with this image?

Thanks

Security is disabled by default to make the image usable and user-friendly out-of-the-box.
Enabling security is most definitely possible, but setting it up is a bit fiddly, involving custom config files, at least one restart of the container, and bashing into the container to complete the set-up.
See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.2/configuring-stack-security.html for details.
