Hello,

I just installed ES on my Ubuntu server, but when I try to start it with  
/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch -f, I will get result:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (node).  
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

log4j:WARN See [http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig](http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig) for  
more info.

Where can be problem please?

Thank you!

How did you install ES?

Just downloaded and unzip the file and then launch elasticsearch -f ?  
What version?
