ROR returns 401 rather than 404 if access to an index is allowed but the index does not exist

Working on it, almost there! No need for tickets.
So I was trying to remove closed indices manually, but some kind of requests need them (as you found out) and some don’t.
Turns out there’s an inner mechanism in Elasticsearch to let every request decide what’s the right policy for them. Now I’m using that, instead of either removing or keeping closed indices for all requests.

I made some basic checks and the new version looks much better. We will continue to test it and let you know if we find anything odd. Thanks a lot!

Glad it’s working!
Yeah flip it inside out as you please. You guys at CERN is doing an amazing job pushing ROR to its limits and reporting on your findings. Keep it up!
