IllegalArgumentException: None of the ciphers are supported by this JVM

Dear Elastic Team,

I have installed X-Pack 5.5.1 on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2 using the following commands:

cd /tmp/elastic-depot
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/packs/x-pack/x-pack-5.5.1.zip
/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-plugin install file:///tmp/elastic-depot/x-pack-5.5.1.zip

The following commands were added for testing at the end of /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml file:

xpack.security.enabled: false
xpack.monitoring.enabled: true
xpack.graph.enabled: false
xpack.watcher.enabled: false

After the service was restarted the following error message was logged:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: none of the ciphers [TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,

TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256, TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA, TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,

TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA] are supported by this JVM

Could you advice what should be done?
Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Hey,

you are running an unsupported JVM version, see https://www.elastic.co/support/matrix#show_jvm

Either use openjdk, oracle JVM or Azul.
