Elasticsearch throwing exception while starting on Redhat

f61 · August 1, 2014, 3:13pm

Hi,

  I am trying to install elasticsearch on Redhat. I have downloaded and

installed latest elasticsearch from the website. While starting
elasticsearch , I am getting following exception:

[root@common ~]# /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch
Failed to configure logging...

I don't see this file on the system:

Is this a problem in latest rpm package on the website?

Thnx

You should really use service to handle starting it - (sudo) service
elasticsearch start
This will include the correct configurations,
/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml and /etc/default/elasticsearch.

You should use the service wrapper on RHEL/CentOS

It works like a charme.
