Stable Django-Haystack + elasticsearch setup

Question

I'm wondering what the best combination of Django-Haystack + elasticsearch + pyelasticsearch/elasticsearch-py is. I've deployed a setup using Haystack 2.1.1-dev + elasticsearch 1.1.1 + elasticsearch-py 1.0 on an Ubuntu 12.04 machine. I tried using Haystack 2.1.0 (latest stable release) with elasticsearch 1.1.1 and pyelasticsearch 0.6.1, but it kept throwing me an error saying Django-Haystack depends on pyelasticsearch; so I switched to 2.1.1-dev, which worked beautifully.

But now I'm trying deploy an instance of a Django app to a CentOS 6.5 machine (Haystack 2.1.1-dev + elasticsearch 1.1.1 + elasticsearch-py 1.0), and I'm getting the same pyelasticsearch dependency error.

Any hints or tips from someone who has deployed to CentOS would be much appreciated.

Either downgrading to around 2.1 or installing 2.4 from git solved the problem; default pip version still broken for me. — Mark

Got it working, seemed to be a SELinux error, fixed with:

# setenforce 0

For reference, we have these packages installed in a virtualenv:

-e git://github.com/toastdriven/django-haystack.git@366e7489169d460d36ac4d942c22c0e97e58c26b#egg=django_haystack-master
elasticsearch==1.0.0

And elasticsearch-1.1.1-1.noarch through yum on CentOS 6

Edit: The more general fix that doesn't broadly disable SELinux:

# setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect on
