When running enterprise search the config doesn't seen right

BIN\_DIR=$(dirname "$0")

BIN\_DIR=$(realpath "$BIN\_DIR")

export APP\_ROOT="$(cd "$(dirname "$BIN\_DIR")"; pwd)"

CONFIG\_DIR="$APP\_ROOT/config"

LIB\_DIR="$APP\_ROOT/lib"

This config causes the system to look in the bin directory for lib and filebeat

I had to create simlinks or copy the lib and filebeat directories to bin. I don't believe this is the desired state.

Steve --

Thanks for another report.

This looks like a good ol' fashion bug. I've added it to our tracking system.

Your feedback is much appreciated.
