Bumping. We are setting the same problem. Any help would be appreciated. I have tried increasing the Windows Service timeout setting, but no dice. This appears to be an internal ElasticSearch process startup timeout (Elastic.ProcessHosts.Process.StartupException: Could not start process within (00:02:00)). Is there any way to increase this value, or maybe tune my startup so it takes less time? ElasticSearch seems to be getting close to being ready:
