I tried to run elasticsearch docker image from private repository, but its getting crash with _ERROR: [1] bootstrap checks failed._ I found " **bootstrap check should be enabled**"Des.enforce.bootstrap.checks=true" in elastic website. but **i'm not clear** how to enable it where to enable it. Can i get any examples to enable it ? ---

You are not sharing the logs so I can't tell exactly what you have to fix, but at least just read [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/bootstrap-checks.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/bootstrap-checks.html) ---

The important log lines are the next ones. Please format your code, logs or configuration files using `` icon as explained in [this guide](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21) and not the citation button. It will make your post more readable. Or use markdown style like: ```` ``` CODE ``` ```` This is the icon to use if you are not using markdown format: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/e/7e6e239431ec2d71cbf1beef741f2e93e7cc762c.jpg) There's a live preview panel for exactly this reasons. Lots of people read these forums, and many of them will simply skip over a post that is difficult to read, because it's just too large an investment of their time to try and follow a wall of badly formatted text. If your goal is to get an answer to your questions, it's in your interest to make it as easy to read and understand as possible. ---
