Unable to start elasticsearch as service

Hi @Kajol_Nimesh,

Access denied exception is showing for the path /var/lib/elasticsearch. could you please check the access permission for this path.

Caused by: java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: /var/lib/elasticsearch/nodes/0/node.lock

If you see below error it clearly show that not writable and multiple nodes were started. Please check and let me know if you still facing any issue.

failed to obtain node locks, tried [[/var/lib/elasticsearch]] with lock id [0]; maybe these locations are not writable or multiple nodes were started without increasing [node.max_local_storage_nodes] (was [1])? at org.elasticsearch.env.NodeEnvironment.(NodeEnvironment.java:297) ~[elasticsearch-7.0.0.jar:7.0.0]

Regards,
