Unable to start elasticsearch 1.0.0.RC2

I can start elasticsearch without using the service wrapper but when I use this wrapper, it is throwing the below errors:

we renamed the class to ElasticsearchF (note the lowercase s). When 1.0 is out, we can update the script. Though, I recommend just using our deb/rpm packages now.

@kimchy ,

as a fresher on ES, I meet the same problem ( lowercase 'ElasticsearchF ', yet ):

download the package, unzip to %ES_Home%/bin edit elasticsearch.conf： set.default.ES_HOME=/home/lwj/elasticsearch-2.1.1

cd to %ES_Home%/bin/service/, and run: ./elasticsearch start

[yarn@hpblade04 service]$ ./elasticsearch start Starting Elasticsearch... Waiting for Elasticsearch............................... WARNING: Elasticsearch may have failed to start

Then I found these message in /home/lwj/elasticsearch-2.1.1/logs/service.log : STATUS | wrapper | 2016/01/25 17:34:56 | Launching a JVM... INFO | jvm 1 | 2016/01/25 17:34:56 | WrapperManager: Initializing...

anything needed to run service ?
