I am trying to install es 5.2.1 on win2008 r2 server; it already runs 1.x ES. I am getting:

```auto
Installing service : "elasticsearch-service-x64"
Using JAVA_HOME (64-bit): "D:\Java\jdk1.8.0_40x64\jre"
Failed installing 'elasticsearch-service-x64' service

```

I am using the default jvm.options file. I have also detailed the issue at [Github here](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/20899#issuecomment-282070416)

Can you please provide the contents of the service logs? These files are located in the logs directory and have names that indicate they are the service logs.

I have been able to install the service, but now when I start the service I get this in the service log: elasticsearch-service-x64-stderr.2017-02-23.log

Sounds like some other service is listening on 9300, can I config this port in elasticsearch.yml?

</div>

I should say here, my elasticsearch.yml has `http.port: 9250` - so not sure what that that `[9300-9400]` there is.

Can you share your elasticsearch.yml?

Sure:

```auto
cluster.name: clust
node.name: <node1>
http.port: 9250
node.master: true
node.data: true
network.host: <node1>

http.cors.allow-origin: "*"
http.cors.enabled: true
xpack.security.enabled: false
action.auto_create_index: .security,.monitoring*,.watches,.triggered_watches,.watcher-history*

```

I remember reading that port 9300 is used by default by the java client. Is that the port ES uses to communicate with the cluster by any chance? If so, what's the override config for it?

Right, I've fixed that one....now I get

Can you please confirm one thing, `network.host` is any other node in the cluster's hostname/ip right?

Actually ignore that. That's the hostname of the node, isn't it?

Where does ES get the path to `jvm.options` from? Is default set to `./../config`?

</div>

In `jvm.options` I have:

```auto
-Xms2g
-Xmx2g

```

but I see the following bootstrap error:

```auto
ERROR: bootstrap checks failed
initial heap size [536870912] not equal to maximum heap size [8589934592]; this can cause resize pauses and prevents mlockall from locking the entire heap

```

Why isn't the max heap value 2g as I'd expect from the config? Any clues?

Not really. Apparently it does not read the `jvm.options` file you are looking at.  
I wonder if you have any system properties like `JAVA_OPTIONS` which could "conflicts" but really unsure if this should be the case even if you have such a setting.

Any tracing/logging options I could enable that would say where/what it's loading?
