Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch tries to parse a null or empty query. This could be due to a programming error where the query is not properly initialized or assigned. To resolve this issue, ensure that the query is not null or empty before sending it to Elasticsearch. Check your code to make sure the query is properly formed and assigned. If you’re using a dynamic query, add checks to ensure it’s not null or empty before execution.
