Aldryn Haystack: Error updating aldryn_people

[macolo]

it seems there is an incompatibility with django-haystack using the elastic search beta on Aldryn:

When I run ./manage.py rebuild_index on the docker container (with the production env vars set in .env-local). I am using Aldryn with Docker for Mac.

I run django-parler version: 1.6.5

[politoxela]

Has this incident been fixed? I have the same error when I run./manage.py rebuild_index
