logstash7-7.10.0 openjdk15-15.0.1 Attempt to run logstash fails with ```auto # su -m logstash -c 'sh -c "env JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/openjdk15 /usr/local/logstash/bin/logstash --path.settings /usr/local/etc/logstash -l /var/log/logstash "' Using JAVA_HOME defined java: /usr/local/openjdk15 /usr/local/logstash/logstash-core-plugin-api/lib/logstash-core-plugin-api/version.rb:22: warning: The Psych YAML extension failed to load.

Attempt to remove extra space from pipelines.yml did not help. Using truss, I've found some suspicious lines like ```auto 17064: pathconf("${ES_TMPDIR}",_PC_NAME_MAX) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"${ES_TMPDIR}/jffi4638725274615882586.so",0x7fffdfffa290,0x0) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: openat(AT_FDCWD,"${ES_TMPDIR}/jffi4638725274615882586.so",O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL,0666) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0x7fffdfff8120,0x0) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"${ES_TMPDIR}/jruby-17064",0x7fffdffec3d0,0x0) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: mkdir("${ES_TMPDIR}/jruby-17064",0777) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0x7fffdffeba70,AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0x7fffdffeba70,AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0x7fffdffec360,0x0) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: mkdir("/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0777) ERR#13 'Permission denied' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0x7fffdffeba00,AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: mkdir("/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0777) ERR#13 'Permission denied' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"/usr/local/logstash/${ES_TMPDIR}",0x7fffdffec3d0,0x0) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: pathconf("${ES_TMPDIR}/jruby-17064",_PC_NAME_MAX) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: fstatat(AT_FDCWD,"${ES_TMPDIR}/jruby-17064/jruby13431870033481296246psych.jar",0x7fffdffec400,0x0) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' 17064: openat(AT_FDCWD,"${ES_TMPDIR}/jruby-17064/jruby13431870033481296246psych.jar",O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL,0666) ERR#2 'No such file or directory' ``` Looks like somewhere ES\_TEMPDIR does not get translated properly? ---

Same error on openjdk11 - looks like it fires long before any compatibility issues ```auto # su -m logstash -c 'sh -c "env JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/openjdk11 /usr/local/logstash/bin/logstash --path.settings /usr/local/etc/logstash -l /var/log/logstash "' Using JAVA_HOME defined java: /usr/local/openjdk11 /usr/local/logstash/logstash-core-plugin-api/lib/logstash-core-plugin-api/version.rb:22: warning: The Psych YAML extension failed to load.

Whoops! It seems to be a problem in my jvm.options. Sorry. The `grep` almighty really helps ---
