Hi,

When I try to install the RPM package elasticsearch-1.7.3.noarch.rpm I get an error as shown below:

I am running the command "rpm -ivh elasticsearch-1.7.3.noarch.rpm"

error: elasticsearch-1.7.3.noarch.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 signature: BAD, key ID d88e42b4  
error: elasticsearch-1.7.3.noarch.rpm cannot be installed

Can you please let me know why I am not able to install the RPM package.

Regards,

What version of RHEL/CentOS are you running? There was issues with older versions of rpm in the past.

Hi Thiago,

I cannot do a yum install because my server is not connected to the internet.
