This pull request fixes Issue 492, where Arkime would stop capturing network traffic in the Docker SELKS environment. The problem occurred because Arkime_capture sometimes started before Elasticsearch was fully ready, preventing proper indexing and causing packet capture to halt. To resolve this, a startup script (start-arkime.sh) was added that waits for Elasticsearch to be available before launching Arkime_capture. The Dockerfile was updated to use this script as the container entrypoint. This ensures that Arkime reliably starts capturing data even if Elasticsearch takes some time to initialize. The fix has been tested in a Docker Compose SELKS setup, and Arkime continues to capture traffic as expected after container startup.
