Never mind, I found it.  The problem is that newer versions of elasticsearch (> 7.14?) do over-eager version checking as described here.  I ended up moving to https://opensearch.org/ which looks like it's working.  Apparently this affects multiple language bindings (Python, Ruby, JS, maybe others).

I'm exploring using elasticsearch in Toolforge.  I'm running Python 3.7, with elasticsearch==7.16.2 installed.  When I run:

def main():
   es = Elasticsearch(['elasticsearch.svc.tools.eqiad1.wikimedia.cloud:80'])
   print(es.info())

I get:

elasticsearch.exceptions.UnsupportedProductError: The client noticed that the server is not a supported distribution of Elasticsearch

Any idea what's wrong?  Are we running some very old version of elasticsearch server?
