ES6.4 will not start up with gce discovery

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

My elasticsearch.yml looks like this:

network.host: gce:hostname
cloud.gce.project_id: my_id
cloud.gce.zone: europe-west1-b
discovery.zen.hosts_provider: gce

Which account is gce-discovery running under?

Make sure you set the rights compute-rw for the instance as described here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/6.4/discovery-gce-usage-long.html#discovery-gce-usage-long-first-instance
