Elasticsearch not starting, with no errors in the logs

Whats confusing is that it was working yesterday, I rebooted the machine, and today im getting this:

root@ip-172-31-8-215:/home/admin# sudo service elasticsearch status

this is my yml file:

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================
#
# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.
#       Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you
#       understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.
#
# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists
# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.
#
# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html
#
# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:
#
cluster.name: akeneo-server
#
# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for the node:
#
node.name: akeneo-server-node
#
# Add custom attributes to the node:
#
#node.attr.rack: r1
#
# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------
#
# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
#
#path.data: /path/to/data
#
# Path to log files:
#
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch
#
# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------
#
# Lock the memory on startup:
#
bootstrap.memory_lock: true
#
# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available
# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this
# limit.
#
# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.
#
# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------
#
# Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6):
#
network.host: 0.0.0.0
#
# Set a custom port for HTTP:
#
http.port: 9200
#
# For more information, consult the network module documentation.
#
# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------
#
# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when new node is started:
# The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]
#
#discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["host1", "host2"]
#
# Prevent the "split brain" by configuring the majority of nodes (total number of master-eligible nodes / 2 + 1):
#
#discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 3
#
# For more information, consult the zen discovery module documentation.
#
# ---------------------------------- Gateway -----------------------------------
#
# Block initial recovery after a full cluster restart until N nodes are started:
#
#gateway.recover_after_nodes: 3
#
# For more information, consult the gateway module documentation.
#
# ---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------
#
# Require explicit names when deleting indices:
#
#action.destructive_requires_name: true

What's in /var/log/elasticsearch?

Theres nothing in there.

There should be something, you can see it's outputting part of a log for systemctl so maybe check with that too?

yeah its unusual that theres nothing in that folder.

Ill check systemctl log and post it up

it looks like a permission error on /etc/elasticsearch

which user should have permission? root or the admin user?

I tried both 'admin' and 'root' as owner of that folder, but the error remains the same

I think it should be elasticsearch?

OK, that seemed to make a difference.. im now getting a log file created, but it has a whole lot of weird errors that i dont understand.

Feel free to paste them so we can assist.

Take a look at Bootstrap Checks | Elasticsearch Guide [6.3] | Elastic

so it appears to be a memory issue.

The server its running on is a t2.large, which has 16gb of ram. So im not sure why it wouldnt be able to allocate 2gb of ram.

okay.. so I addressed the original issue of different sizes for the memory allocation. and now im getting new errors... Im not wining!

Check that link above, you need to complete all the bootstrap checks for things to start.

OK, so I worked out how to get elasticsearch to load.. but im unsure why?

I commented out this line in /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml

#bootstrap.memory_lock: true

However, im unsure why that would matter?
