What does your `elasticsearch.yml` file looks like? Please share it using the preformatted text option, the `` button. The error is pretty direct. > [xpack.security.transport.ssl] - cannot read configured [PKCS12] keystore (as a truststore) [E:\setup\elasticsearch-8.5.3-windows-x86\_64\elasticsearch-8.5.3\config\certs\transport.p12] **because the file does not exist** It says that the file `transport.p12` is not present in the specified directory. If you follow the setup guide, created the file and put it in the specified directory it should work or give you a differente error. Please share the error you are receiving now. ---

This is a completely different question, it is not clear if you solved your first issue or not and you didn't share the error you are getting. If you solved the error, then you should open a new question about this, also, do not share configurations in plain text, use the preformatted button, the ``, it makes clear to read the configuration. ---
