Unable to install on Ubuntu 18.04

It seems the deb Package can not be unpacked:

Vorbereitung zum Entpacken von .../elasticsearch_6.3.2_all.deb ...
dpkg: Fehler beim Bearbeiten des Archivs /var/cache/apt/archives/elasticsearch_6.3.2_all.deb (--unpack):
new elasticsearch package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Fehler traten auf beim Bearbeiten von:
/var/cache/apt/archives/elasticsearch_6.3.2_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1

Unpacking via
dpkg -x /var/cache/apt/archives/elasticsearch_6.3.2_all.deb /tmp/elastic

Seems to work...

Now it seems to work ... openjdk was missing ... :frowning:

You have to install java.

I tried testing an install on Ubuntu 18.* I was disappointing to find that after I installed the Java 10. Logstash is not compatible with Java 10. Even tho logstash was not on this node of the cluster it still caused errors. I had to revert to Ubuntu 16 and Oracle Java 8. Hope this is helpful. Have a good day.
