elasticsearch service fails to start after installation -
i installed elastic search using deb package here. service fails start , throws below error. how can fix this?
$ sudo service elasticsearch restart * stopping elasticsearch server [ ok ] * starting elasticsearch server chown: invalid group: `elasticsearch:elasticsearch' chown: invalid group: `elasticsearch:elasticsearch' [fail]
maybe don't have user/group set in system:
for security reasons, running server unprivileged user , group encouraged. create user , group elasticsearch:
groupadd elasticsearch
useradd -s /sbin/nologin -d /usr/local/elasticsearch -c "elasticsearch user"
