Elastalert.yaml

I've revised the elastalert.yaml file:

es_host: 10.0.0.51

# The elasticsearch port
es_port: 9200

# This is the folder that contains the rule yaml files
# Any .yaml file will be loaded as a rule
rules_folder: rules

And the elasticsearch server is normal,Please tell me how to solve this problem.

Looking forward to your reply,thanks!!

See _'No mapping found for [alerttime] in order to sort on', it means something went wrong when elastalert creating index (likely caused by previous elastalert start failure). Just delete the existing elastalert_* indices auto created by elastalert in your elasticsearch cluster and restart elastalert.
