I got this problem too. I delete the elasticsearch data directory and fix the issue.

The index_uuid field was added to the shard state in 2.0 (https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/10093 ) . It seems you have installed ES 2.x and then downgrade to ES1.7. 1.7 can not read the state file made by 2.x (and many other files). This is expected and is by design. You sadly have two options - go back to 2.x or delete the data and reindex on 1.7
