Did you follow https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.0/important-settings.html and https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.0/system-config.html?

Sorry, I'm a newbie in elasticsearch. I have installed it in my Ubuntu system without any issues and without changing any configuration.

But now this issue is in my servint VPS.

ok put any screen shot what the error might so that we can find solution for that without any queue it is impossible to solve the problem.

error is already there in my first post.

Which flavour have you installed like debian,tar etc and what os are you using?

centos 6.7, elaaticsearch 5.0 rpm. its a VPS
