Thanks

Thanks.
Does anyone know of a version that uses /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions instead
of /lib/lsb, that would work on CentOS and work with elasticsearch 1.0.1 ?

Did you ever find a script that works on CentOS? I'm also looking for one.

The one from the elasticsearch CentOS rpm repository works fine here on EL6.

(there are also 1.0 and 1.1 repos, simply adjust the baseurl)
The source is here:
[https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/blob/master/src/rpm/init.d/elasticsearch](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/blob/master/src/rpm/init.d/elasticsearch)
..but I recommend the rpm from the repo because of /etc/sysconfig and
install locations etc, much easier that way.
