You'll need to address that. I see you already have a topic on this subject open:

> [@I downloaded and installed elasticsearch](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/i-downloaded-and-installed-elasticsearch/266623):
>
> \*\*On Linux Mint. I extracted the archive tar.gz and cd into elasticsearch dir and ran ./bin/elasticsearch, \*\* The error message was: could not find java in the bundled jdk dir. I have Open JDK already installed on my system.

It's better not to make multiple posts on the same subject.
