There is insufficient memory for the Java Runtime Environment to continue

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
7

@Akhil2 Are running logstash and / or kibana and / or elasticsearch on the same host?

Elasticsearch will try to take 4GB of your 8 GB of RAM if it can not it will fail.

try setting in the jvm.option file

-Xms2g
-Xmx2g

Basically you are probably trying to run too much on a single small host.

Also if you are running multiple apps, start elasticsearch first so it can claim its memory.
