Hi. Im new here, first topic. Now i'm trying to install ELK, starting from elasticsearch. I have followed the instructions in [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/\_installation.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/_installation.html) but the process frezzes in this line: [2016-09-16 08:44:29,963][INFO][gateway] [Edward "Ned" Buckman] recovered [0] indices into cluster\_state Im working in a old notebook running Ubuntu 16.04. Thanks ---

open your web browser to: [http://localhost:9200/](http://localhost:9200/) You should see: status 200. If you see this, then you succesfully installed elasticsearch In fact it's normal that it freezes. You won't launch elasticsearch like that afterwards. ---

Primarily, sorry about my english. Now, if i follow these instructions, the process get frezzed. So i tried to run dpkg -l | grep elasticsearch and see if the package was installed. And it wasn't. By the way, i want to say that i tried installing elasticsearch in other way. I followed the instructions in [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/setup-repositories.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/setup-repositories.html) but this way installs elasticsearch version 1.7.3. #dpkg -l | grep elasticsearch ii elasticsearch 1.7.3+dfsg-3 ii libelasticsearch1.7-java 1.7.3+dfsg-3 In this point, i tryed to acced to [SERVERIP]:9200 but the conection was refused. If i run systemctl status elasticsearch.service, i get that is "active(exited)" and there is a warning: No java runtime was found. I hope this helps. Thanks ---
