Failed with result 'exit-code'

[Pulko]

Hi guys,

Thx for having me here. I'm a newbie
I need your help :

My company would like to use ActiveCollab as a project management tool.
AC requires ElasticSearch (but not supporting the 7.x version yet).

I'm trying to install Elasticsearch for 2 days now without success
I read a lot but i'm stuck.

Here is the log i got :

[root@vps555656 ~]# service elasticsearch status

Hi @Pulko

Have you read the Important Elasticsearch Configuration, Important System Configuration and Bootstrap Checks?

Please share your configuration of Elasticsearch with us. Which version of Elasticsearch have you installed on which OS?

Thank you for the information.
