What OS, how did you install it?

3

I am Using Ubuntu 16.04,
and installed the ES using Deb package (https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.2.4.deb).

Can you check the Elasticsearch logs and post those?

Below are the logs

Can you post the full output of running

java -version

Thanks.

openjdk version "9-internal"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 9-internal+0-2016-04-14-195246.buildd.src)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 9-internal+0-2016-04-14-195246.buildd.src, mixed mode)

I have Installed openjdk-9-jre.

thanks

That looks like a pre-release, internal build of JDK9
Java 9 was officially released in September 2017, and it looks like you have a build from April 2016.

You'll need to get a more recent, supported release of Java 9 (or Java 8).

Thanks,
Initially i installed jdk 9 using apt install openjdk-9-jdk, which was installing the above version.
after i manually installed jdk 9+181, I am able to run ES.

Thanks for the Help :slight_smile:
