Elasticsearch 6.7.0 not working on windows 2008

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I have upgraded Elasticsearch from 5.2.2 to 6.7.0 version. After upgrading successfully, I am not able to start Elasticsearch on W2008 box. Giving below error.

Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "\?\C:\elasticsearch-6.7.0\elasticsearch-6.7.0\modules\x-pack-ml\platform\windows-x86_64\bin\controller.exe": CreateProcess error=193, %1 is not a valid Win32 application

Why ES 6.7.0 not starting on Windows 2008 and Is it possible to start on 6.7.0 on windows 2008???

Please suggest a workaround if any.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @amol_sonawane1 .

Please check this error i thing windows arch miss match :

Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "\?\C:\elasticsearch-6.7.0\elasticsearch-6.7.0\modules\x-pack-ml\platform\windows-x86_64\bin\controller.exe": CreateProcess error=193, %1 is not a valid Win32 application

i think you need to check either you are using 64 or 32 application for elastic search.

Hi @amol_sonawane1 .

Thanks

Yes Windows arch is 64 bit.

Assuming Elasticsearch is also 64 bit. Downloaded from https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.7.0.zip

Does ES provides 32 bit version?

Is elasticsearch 6.7 supported in Windows 2008?

According to the support matrix is is not.

I agree.
The Windows 2008R2 is not mentioned in support matrix but ES 6.7 working well on Windows 2008 R2.
