Did you try to install it before and it failed? The message mentions that Elastic Agent is installed but currently broken, also complains about the `elastic-agent.service` existing. What does it return when you run `systemctl status elastic-agent` ? I would check this, remove the Elastic Agent paths (`/opt/Elastic`) and the service if it exists and try again. ---

Well, this shows that this server has an Elastic Agent already installed and running. You cannot install it again if it is already installed. Why you want to install it again on the same server? You would need to remove it first. ---

> [@nerd](#): > > i dont see any server enrolled am unuble to add agents , how do i recovered from this I would recommend that you uninstall the agent them try to install it again. The uninstall documentation can be found [here](https://www.elastic.co/docs/reference/fleet/uninstall-elastic-agent). Your issue is that you are trying to install an agent on a machine that already has one agent installing and running. ---

Note the uninstall command are very specific, execute them exactly as defined in the documentation, do not `cd` to the installation directory and just execute with relative paths ---
