what's your `JAVA_HOME` environment variable set to?

Also, please take the time to write a proper error description, include proper formatted log outputs (please do not use the subject for this). This is pretty hard to read. See [https://www.elastic.co/help](https://www.elastic.co/help)

Thank you!
