I have installed ES 7.0.1 on Windows 2012 Server. And i get following error in the logs when trying to start the ES Service. If i disable the "ml pack" via configuration it works, but i want to use ml pack. * * * [2019-05-17T17:15:27,975][INFO][o.e.p.PluginsService] [telemetry1] loaded module [x-pack-watcher] [2019-05-17T17:15:27,975][INFO][o.e.p.PluginsService] [telemetry1] no plugins loaded [2019-05-17T17:16:27,099][ERROR][o.e.b.Bootstrap] [telemetry1] Exception org.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchException: Failed to create native process factories for Machine Learning at org.elasticsearch.xpack.ml.MachineLearning.createComponents(MachineLearning.java:433) ~[?:?] at org.elasticsearch.node.Node.lambda$new$9(Node.java:438) ~[elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at java.util.stream.ReferencePipeline$7$1.accept(ReferencePipeline.java:271) ~[?:?] at java.util.ArrayList$ArrayListSpliterator.forEachRemaining(ArrayList.java:1654) ~[?:?] at java.util.stream.AbstractPipeline.copyInto(AbstractPipeline.java:484) ~[?:?] at java.util.stream.AbstractPipeline.wrapAndCopyInto(AbstractPipeline.java:474) ~[?:?] at java.util.stream.ReduceOps$ReduceOp.evaluateSequential(ReduceOps.java:913) ~[?:?] at java.util.stream.AbstractPipeline.evaluate(AbstractPipeline.java:234) ~[?:?] at java.util.stream.ReferencePipeline.collect(ReferencePipeline.java:578) ~[?:?] at org.elasticsearch.node.Node.(Node.java:441) ~[elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.node.Node.(Node.java:251) ~[elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap$5.(Bootstrap.java:211) ~[elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap.setup(Bootstrap.java:211) ~[elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap.init(Bootstrap.java:325) [elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.init(Elasticsearch.java:159) [elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.execute(Elasticsearch.java:150) [elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.cli.EnvironmentAwareCommand.execute(EnvironmentAwareCommand.java:86) [elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.cli.Command.mainWithoutErrorHandling(Command.java:124) [elasticsearch-cli-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.cli.Command.main(Command.java:90) [elasticsearch-cli-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.main(Elasticsearch.java:115) [elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch.main(Elasticsearch.java:92) [elasticsearch-7.0.1.jar:7.0.1] Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: \.\pipe\controller\_log\_3064 (The system cannot find the file specified) * * * Any solutions? ---

Hello - the easiest way to debug this is to find and execute `controller.exe` from a Command prompt: - first with `--version` as a command-line argument (`c:\path\to\controller.exe --version`) - then again without the `--version` argument Report what the output is and post back. Thanks! ---

Thanks Rich.. It gave me error "api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0-dll" is missing, so now i am installing the Windows Updates and the 2015 redistributable. Any other changes i should make ? Regards, rupa ---

Hi Rupa, The component you need is the Universal C Runtime. You've probably got it now as a sub-component of the Visual Studio 2015 redistributable, but just in case anyone else is reading this post because they've got the same problem the bare minimum to download is [https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows) No action is required when running on Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016, as these ship with the Universal C Runtime built in. For older versions of Windows the Universal C Runtime has been available through Windows Update for several years, so we assumed everyone would have it. But since it's an optional update I guess that's not true. We will add a note to the docs to say it's required. Regards, David ---

Thanks David. Yea the VS 2015 redistributable resolved the issue. I just had some issues installing the redistrubutable but it was related to not having the current Windows update, so i had to go through a lot of update installation for anybody who is facing similar issues. Regards, Rupa ---
