Elasticsearch failed to start

Bigranawab · September 3, 2020, 2:49pm

Hi,

My elasticsearch instance was working just fine, I made some changes to elasticsearch.yml file for email setting and restarted service, but elasticsearch failed to start and I could not even connect to elasticsearch using curl on by ubuntu machine it says failed to connect both on localhost and on IP.
I removed changes and restart service but still it failed to start.

Can you share your elasticsearch log file ?

there are only 2 warning, this will not block your node from starting,
can you provide fulle log file or look at latests ERROR when you tried to restart your node

Steve_Mushero · September 4, 2020, 6:49am

Sure looks like you are failing on illegal flags on the JVM as JVM won't even start in your first log set (so can't see how you can get second log set at all, which is after node running).

Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
JvmOptionsParser / flagsFinal

Seems you messed up the elasticsearch.yml file or touched the JVM options file.

I did not change any thing in JVM options file, just changed some setting in elasticsearch.yml

Steve_Mushero · September 4, 2020, 8:57am

Suggest post full elasticsearch.yml file and jvm options file. As snippets.

Also look for ERROR in log as @ylasri suggests.
