Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch is unable to load a machine learning model due to issues like incorrect model path, insufficient permissions, or corrupted model files. To resolve this, ensure the model path is correct and accessible. Check the file permissions and make sure Elasticsearch has the necessary rights to access the model. If the model file is corrupted, try to restore it from a backup or retrain the model. Also, ensure that your Elasticsearch version supports the model you’re trying to load.
