Problem Description

I'm trying to run TheHive on my Arch Linux by following the step-by-step guide and I'm running the Cassandra DB and Search Index in localhost for testing. I set everything also by using some missing steps I described on https://github.com/TheHive-Project/TheHive/issues/2463 and at the end of all settings, cassandra, elasticsearch and thehive services are running (according to sudo systemctl status). Despite this, I'm not able to access to TheHive by localhost:9000 and, according to the logs, this occurs because ElasticSearch is asking for authentication:

My /etc/thehive/application.conf is:

include "/etc/thehive/secret.conf"
db {
  provider: janusgraph
  janusgraph {
    storage {
      backend: cql
      hostname: ["127.0.0.1"] # seed node ip addresses
      #username: "<cassandra_username>"       # login to connect to database (if configured in Cassandra)
      #password: "<cassandra_passowrd"
      cql {
        cluster-name: thp       # cluster name
        keyspace: thehive           # name of the keyspace
        local-datacenter: datacenter1   # name of the datacenter where TheHive runs (relevant only on multi datacenter setup)
        # replication-factor: 2 # number of replica
        read-consistency-level: ONE
        write-consistency-level: ONE
      }
    }
    ## Index configuration
    index.search {
      backend : elasticsearch
      hostname : ["localhost"]
      index-name : thehive
    }
  }
}

## Storage configuration
storage {
provider = localfs
localfs.location = /opt/thp/thehive/files
}

I also tried to use the following as index search as test:

index.search {
      backend : elasticsearch
      hostname : ["localhost"]
      index-name : thehive
      search.username = "hello"
      search.password = "hellohello"
    }

where hello is a working test user I created and I can connect to ElasticSearch http://127.0.0.1:9200 service:

By connecting to http://127.0.0.1:9000 I get "Unable to connect" browser message.
