Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch finds multiple bindings for the same descriptor in the Guice dependency injection framework. This usually happens when there are duplicate bindings in the code. To resolve this issue, you can: 1) Review your code to identify and remove any duplicate bindings. 2) If you’re using modules, ensure that each module has unique bindings. 3) If you’re using a third-party library that includes bindings, you may need to create a separate module for it to avoid conflicts.

throw new ElasticsearchException("Found multiple locations for binding [{}] in descriptor [{}] - [{}]";
binding; identityProvider.getID(); locations);
