Hello everyone.
I can not change local ES location - can not modify path.data .
That's probably some elementary mistake, but I am stuck and greatly appreciate any assistance.
So:
Fresh local installation of ES 7.8.1 under Centos 7, everything runs correctly, if no changes were done in elasticsearch.yml:
But if I try change elasticsearch.yml:
# path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch'
path.data: /run/media/admin/bvv2/elasticsearch/
(i.e. try to point to external disk), I get after systemctl start elasticsearch:
Job for elasticsearch.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status elasticsearch.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
where in "systemctl status elasticsearch.service" :
● elasticsearch.service - Elasticsearch
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/elasticsearch.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2020-08-17 16:23:16 MSK; 5min ago
