What did you try exactly?  
Did you check the logs?

Did you change the `network.host` setting? As mentioned here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/important-settings.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/important-settings.html)

Side note: don't run elasticsearch publicly exposed on internet!

BTW did you look at [https://www.elastic.co/cloud](https://www.elastic.co/cloud)? It's much easier to setup a cluster and have it up and running, secured, in minutes...

Cloud by elastic is one way to have access to all features, all managed by us. Think about what is there yet like Security, Monitoring, Reporting, SQL, Canvas, APM, Logs UI, Infra UI, SIEM, Maps UI and what is coming next 🙂 ...
