Actually when I said

Much better.

I was wrong. You are using the citation icon instead of </>.

So please fix the format. It should be like:

bsaitechnosales@storage:~/Downloads$ sudo /etc/init.d/elasticsearch start
Starting elasticsearch: /etc/init.d/elasticsearch: line 108: daemon:
command not found

bsaitechnosales@storage:~/Downloads$ sudo service elasticsearch status

Thanks.

Then about your question. This is important indeed:

line 70: /etc/sysconfig/elasticsearch: Permission denied

It indicates that this file can not be read by elasticsearch. Which probably means that you did not clean all the existing files before reinstalling.

I'd probably check the rights for this file.

[bsaitechnosales]

lets do from start. I have uninstall elasticsearch in following way. Now
let's start in a clean way. Please suggest me the steps for installing
elasticsearch. This time i would like to follow your instructions

(1) Remove previous versions of ElasticSearch:

sudo apt-get --purge autoremove elasticsearch

(2) Remove the ElasticSearch directories:

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/elasticsearch/
sudo rm -rf /etc/elasticsearch
sudo rm -rf /opt/sonar/elasticsearch
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/elasticsearch/

(3) Search and Remove
bsaitechnosales@storage:~$ sudo find / "elasticsearch" | grep "elasticsearch"
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/elasticsearch.service
/root/Downloads/elasticsearch-6.1.1.rpm
/root/Downloads/elasticsearch-2.3.1.deb
/home/bsaitechnosales/Downloads/elasticsearch-6.1.1.rpm
/tmp/hsperfdata_elasticsearch

/opt/gitlab/embedded/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/peek-1.0.1/lib/peek/adapters/elasticsearch.rb

bsaitechnosales@storage:~$ sudo rm -rf /tmp/hsperfdata_elasticsearch
bsaitechnosales@storage:~$ sudo rm -rf etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/elasticsearch*

[bsaitechnosales]

David R u there ?

[dadoonet (David Pilato)]

Yes. But it happens that people are sleeping or doing other stuff.
Read this and specifically the "Also be patient" part.

Again, please format your code.

I can see by chance that Sonar is supposed to use a 5.6 version but you are trying to install a 6.1 version. There is a chance that this is not going to work.

Anyway, to install elasticsearch, please follow the guide @warkolm linked to previously.

[bsaitechnosales]

Once again would like to confirm first and then only i trigger the command. I will be following below steps for elasticsearch installation steps. Please guide me

The below steps is taken from this url --> Install Elasticsearch with Debian Package | Elasticsearch Guide [8.11] | Elastic

Download and install the Debian package manually
edit

The Debian package for Elasticsearch v6.1.1 can be downloaded from the website and installed as follows:

wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.1.1.deb
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-6.1.1.deb.sha512
shasum -a 512 -c elasticsearch-6.1.1.deb.sha512
sudo dpkg -i elasticsearch-6.1.1.deb

Also i have uninstall SONARQUBE as well

root@storage:/home/bsaitechnosales# sudo find / "sonar" | grep "sonar" | morefind: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied
find: ‘sonar’: No such file or directory
/etc/init.d/sonar
/etc/rc3.d/S02sonar
/root/Downloads/sonar-scanner-msbuild-4.0.2.892.zip
/root/Downloads/sonarqube-6.7.1.zip
/home/bsaitechnosales/Downloads/sonar_qube_installation_steps
/home/bsaitechnosales/Downloads/sonar-intellij-plugin-2.2.0.zip
/home/bsaitechnosales/Downloads/sonar-runner-dist-2.4.zip
/home/bsaitechnosales/sonar_qube_installation_steps
root@storage:/home/bsaitechnosales#

Now would like to follow your footsteps for both eleasticsearch and sonarqube.

Awaiting for your response

[dadoonet (David Pilato)]

I can't tell for sonarqube and as I said at the beginning you should ask in sonarqube forums about this.

I just noted that IMO it's useless to install elasticsearch 6.x as Sonarqube seems to expect a version 5.x. But I imagine that sonarqube installation guide mentions that.

Then, if you install elasticsearch and follow the exact steps that you linked to, it should be fine. If not, please copy and paste here all the steps you did and the output of each command.
