Hello @Halim_Dris

This warning means that you have to set the java 's environmental variable to ES_JAVA_HOME

In command prompt just check whether this variable already set or not using this command echo %ES_JAVA_HOME%

Could you please set the same in environmental variable under SYSTEM VARIABLE if its not set

  • Thank you sudhagar_ramesh, but the problem come from
    the line 105 of file elasticsearch.bat

echo %ES_JAVA_HOME% = D:\Elastic\elasticsearch-8.2.3\jdk

ECHO.!KEYSTORE_PASSWORD!| %JAVA% %ES_JAVA_OPTS% ^
      -Des.path.home="%ES_HOME%" ^
      -Des.path.conf="%ES_PATH_CONF%" ^
      -Des.distribution.flavor="%ES_DISTRIBUTION_FLAVOR%" ^
      -Des.distribution.type="%ES_DISTRIBUTION_TYPE%" ^
      -cp "!ES_CLASSPATH!;!ES_HOME!/lib/tools/security-cli/*;!ES_HOME!/modules/x-pack-core/*;!ES_HOME!/modules/x-pack-security/*" "org.elasticsearch.xpack.security.cli.AutoConfigureNode" !newparams!
