having trouble getting EL to run on ubuntu. I've used the deb installer but the service is not running. I've tried to start the service and get no errors but it's still not running. I'm using ps -A to look for the service running but not sure if that's the best way. Help! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
