I am not able to run multiple ES instances on one windows server  
I want to run multiple ES instances through multiple ES  
services.  
I know on paper that you need to config different settings for Path & Data & have different yml files.  
but that is not working up.  
Could you guys please share any file developed of clear steps please  
I had been trying copying multiple yml files in same of different config folders with different settings as read in channels but no help.  
I am not able to launch the second service as it displays an exception.

Thansk and Regards.
