Environments: 4GB memory virtual machine, Ubuntu 16.04 , jdk-8, ES-6.4.2
No message outputs after executing:
sudo systemctl start elasticsearch
after excuting:
sudo /etc/init.d/elasticsearch start
it says : [ ok ] Starting elasticsearch (via systemctl): elasticsearch.service. .
But I can't find the progress (ps -ef | grep elasticsearch prints nothing) and the directory/var/log/elasticsearch only has a gc.log.0.current log without any error message.
Have you checked the systemd logs? (use journalctl)
I followed your suggestion, sudo journalctl -u elasticsearch.service prints many Errors :

Error messages make a hit of permission problem.
After changing the owner of /var/logs/elasticsearch and /usr/share/elasticsearch to elastcisearch:elasticsearch, new error messages are logged in /usr/share/elasticsearch as follow:

I want to provide more information about how I install the ES:
I first install ES (sudo apt install default-jdk && sudo apt install elasticsearch), and the ES version is 1.. .
Then, I remove the ES with sudo apt remove elasticsearch and sudo apt autoremove, and manually install the current ES6.4.2 with the deb file.
Well it definitely looks like your install has gone badly - but unless you're going to wipe the whole box and start again, the only suggestion I have is to keep trying to start the service and then fix up the permissions as you run into them.
