Hello,
I am trying to start the elasticsearch service with the command systemctl start elasticsearch but I am getting this message
Job for elasticsearch.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status elasticsearch.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
this is the current state of elasticsearch when running a systemctl status elasticsearch
systemctl status elasticsearch

When I go to the /etc/elasticsearch path and try to open the elasticsearch.yml file using nano I get the following message
" [ Error reading lock file ./.elasticsearch.yml.swp: Not enough data read ] "
with this I understand from my ignorance that it may be the cause
thank you help me to solve this problem

What does
sudo journalctl --unit elasticsearch
Show?
The nano thing looks like you don't have privilege to edit the file.
cd /etc/elasticsearch
ls -la

I have run the command ls -a and was able to find the . swp and deleted it
I tried to start the elasticsearch service again but it still does not start, it seems that this swp file was not related to the problem.
