What/where did you download elasticsearch from?

im working on RedHat oparation System,download it 3 days ago from

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.2/_installation.html

to download i wrote in my console as follows:

curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-5.2.2.tar.gz

Then you just:

tar xzf xxx
bin/elasticsearch

And it fails with this message ?
