I tried elasticsearch versions 18.0,19.2 and 19.3 but can't initialize ES
getting same Exception

You have probably another Lucene Jar in your classloader, no ?

Yes. Do you only start ES or are you trying to run it from java ?

Did you install plugins ?

As David said, it's most likely a class path issue. Open bin/elasticsearch
in a text editor and add "echo" before exec in the foreground section:

if [ "x$foreground" != "x" ]; then
    es_parms="$es_parms -Des.foreground=yes"
    *echo* exec "$JAVA" $JAVA_OPTS $ES_JAVA_OPTS $es_parms

-Des.path.home="$ES_HOME" -cp "$ES_CLASSPATH" $props
org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch
else

Then start elasticsearch with -f flag and check the class path that
elasticsearch is running with.
