Hi Team

we are migrating ES 6.8.5 Java environment from Java8 to Java11. we are using oraclejdk11 as our Java vendor. we set Java\_home in bin/elasticsearch file like below

> usr/java/jdk11

In ansbile below task is failed to execute

> - name: List what we have in keystore  
> command: \>  
> {{ elastic\_dir }}/bin/elasticsearch-keystore list

we get below error

> "stderr": "which: no java in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin)\ncould not find java; set JAVA\_HOME",

**Update** :

if I run the elasticsearch-keystore list command through putty it executes fine.
