Can't start service it stops (7.7.0)

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
2

I encountered the same situation.

What I found as a temporary workaround is the following:

  1. Create a new folder in C:\ProgramData\Elastic\Elasticsearch\config:

jvm.options_

  1. Move the file jvm.options into the newly created folder jvm.options_

  2. Rename folder jvm.options_ to jvm.options.

When you start the service, it will be able to find the configuration file:

C:\ProgramData\Elastic\Elasticsearch\config\jvm.options\jvm.options
