Magento 2.4 needs OpenSearch (or Elasticsearch) for catalog search and layered navigation. On Gen2 it runs on the server itself, only reachable from the server.
- OpenSearch 2, single node, on
127.0.0.1:9200. - Its memory is a quarter of the server's memory.
- Installed when a Magento store needs it; one instance serves every Magento store on the server.
Search returns errors or no results
- Check that opensearch is active under Services on the server overview; restart it if not.
- Run Reindex from the application's Actions tab.
- Still broken? Open a ticket with the error from
var/log/exception.log(Logs tab, Magento exception.log).
Did this solve it? If not, tell us what you see and we look at your server.
