Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch is unable to execute an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) runnable within the expected time frame. This could be due to network issues, slow LDAP server response, or heavy load on the Elasticsearch server. To resolve this issue, you can increase the timeout setting, optimize the LDAP server for faster responses, or reduce the load on the Elasticsearch server by optimizing queries or increasing resources.
