I’ve checked that the courses are published and visible to all users. Using the DevTools, on the Network tab, the /course\_discovery endpoint gets called twice and they don’t return any courses as shown in the picture below.

I have checked for errors on the LMS, CMS, Discovery, and Elasticsearch service logs; none contain any errors. I tried searching for people who may already face this issue, and I found some occurrences. I tried solutions from [this thread](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/tutor-upgrade-to-nutmeg-discovery-plugin-init-finishes-with-error/7465) and [this thread](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/got-0-results-found-when-using-course-search-in-lms-koa-native-instance-discovery-elasticsearch/4302). None of the solutions worked for me. I even tried `docker system prune`, which cleared 43 GB of space, then repeated those solutions, and it still hasn’t worked.

[`@tutor-maintainers`](https://github.com/orgs/overhangio/teams/tutor-maintainers/members) What could be causing this issue, and how can I troubleshoot it?"
