Hello,
I'm having trouble trying to start Elasticsearh (tar.gz installation) with Systemd.
This is the service's unit file. I copyied from Elastic's repo in Github and changed user, group and path variables. Other than that I already added the TimeoutStartSec=900
parameter, trying to solve this.
What happens is that systemctl start elasticsearch
hangs... When I try to see the logs looks like it's stuck in:
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.
And then it times out.
Unit file:
[Unit]

# StandardOutput is configured to redirect to journalctl since

Any clue? I suppose Systemd is waiting to be notified by the processe, but that doesn't happen somehow.
By the way, when I start manually it works.
Thank you!
