I am having a problem running elasticsearch-0.90.11.deb on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS (VMWare VM, Intel Xeon @ 2.3Ghz, 2GB RAM). The problem occurs after I run `/etc/init.d/elasticsearch start`. Although ES appears to start successfully, grepping for the process shows it is not running.
Issuing the following: cd /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin ./elasticsearch -f ...gives: log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (node). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info. With help from a developer colleague I have managed to get it to run by adding a suitable log4j.properties file to /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin, cd-ing to that directory and running `./elasticsearch -f -Dlog4j.configuration=./log4j.properties`. However, I'm not sure why this would have been required in the first place and feel there must be something misconfigured that's resulting in the init.d script failing to start ES. I have tried adding the following to /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml but it doesn't make a difference: path.conf: /etc/elasticsearch path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch path.work: /tmp/elasticsearch path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch ES is one of the dependencies for some software we are running called atom, which only support ES < v1. The install instructions are available at https://www.accesstomemory.org/en/docs/2.0/admin-manual/installation/linux/#installation-linux. The version of Java is Oracle’s JVM distributed by Web Upd8: java -version java version "1.8.0_11" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_11-b12) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.11-b03, mixed mode) Thanks for any help you can provide.
