When trying to install Elasticsearch as a service using the provided batch script, it terminates without giving any console output. When double-clicked in Windows explorer, the command window appears and exits immediately. When run from a command window, nothing happens. Removing '@echo off' from service.bat and trying again yields the following: C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\>SETLOCAL C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\>if NOT DEFINED JAVA\_HOME goto err C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\>set SCRIPT\_DIR=C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\ C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\>for %I in ("C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin..") do set ES\_HOME=%~dpfI C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\>set ES\_HOME=C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5 C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\>rem Detect JVM version to figure out appropriate executable to use C:\elasticsearch-0.90.5\bin\>C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java -version 2\>&1 | find "64-Bit" 1\>nul: I am able to run elasticsearch.bat without any problem - I can index, search, and discover other nodes.

Looks like the spaces in the java definition break the version detection - adding quotes around it should help (I'll fix this shortly in trunk and 0.90). In the meantime you could either add the quotes yourself or use a symlink without spaces: > mklink /D /J "c:\jvm" "c:\Program Files\Java" By the way, note that you are using a JRE not the JDK which means Elasticsearch will run in client mode only.

Costin, Thanks for the quick feedback! I finally got some time to revisit this, and your suggestion to use a path without spaces worked great! Instead of adding quotes or creating a symlink, I changed the JAVA\_HOME environment variable to _C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk...._ Also, leaving it pointed at the JRE path caused starting the service to fail (couldn't find jvm.dll, according to the error logs), so I switched it to the JDK path. In any event, you've been very helpful - thank you! -Mark On Wednesday, September 18, 2013 3:57:00 PM UTC-4, Costin Leau wrote: > Thanks for the quick feedback and sorry for the inconvenience. > > Cheers, > > On 18/09/2013 10:53 PM, Caio D'Angelo wrote: > > > I tested and the proposed solution works fine. > > > > Thanks. > > > > Em quarta-feira, 18 de setembro de 2013 11h38min14s UTC-3, Costin Leau > > escreveu: > > > > ``` > > I've pushed a fix for your issue in 0.90 and master: > > https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/3725 < > > > > ``` > > [service.bat fails unexpectedly if JAVA\_HOME contains spaces · Issue #3725 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/3725)\> > > > ``` > > It would be great if you could test it out. > > > > Thanks, > > > > On 18/09/2013 3:57 PM, Mark Carpenter wrote: > > > When trying to install Elasticsearch as a service using the > > > > ``` > > provided batch script, it terminates without giving any > > > ``` > > > console output.

Glad to hear it worked. I've added another improvement to service.bat to allow ES to run under JRE (this means using a client JVM so service.bat gives you a warning) but also to do some basic JAVA\_HOME detection in case the path is invalid. This should prevent some issues when using incorrect settings and make the script more reliable. The fix is available in both master and 0.90 branch [1]. Feedback is welcome!
