I used a specific library that used an embedded version of elasticsearch. Now as we are growing, I want to start elasticsearch as a service.
I followed this guide to install it using yum
on a linux machine. I pointed ES to the new directory using
path:
logs: /home/ec2-user/.searchindex/logs
data: /home/ec2-user/.searchindex/data
When I start the service
sudo service elasticsearch start
I get a permission denied error:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/ec2-user/.searchindex/logs/elasticsearch_index_search_slowlog.log (Permission denied)
at java.io.FileOutputStream.open0(Native Method)
....
I guess this has to do with the folder permission, I changed folder permission using:
sudo chown elasticsearch:elasticsearch -R .searchindex
But that didn't help.
Any help?
Your user elasticsearch can't write in the logging folder : /home/ec2-user/.searchindex/logs
Check the permissions with ls -l
Set write permission with the chmod
command :
eg : sudo chmod -R u+wx .searchindex
The issue occurred because .searchindex
is located in ec2-user directory which obviously is inaccessible by elasticsearch
user created to manage the elasticsearch service.
Moving the folder to /var/lib/elasticsearch
did the trick.
