Bug description
As is out of the box the installation of Elasticsearch 6.8.1 is unsuccessful. It passes however the service never successfully starts. The issue is the following exception:
Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.io.FilePermission" "/etc/elasticsearch/es-01/scripts" "read")
This bug was already reported once in this issue: https://github.com/elastic/puppet-elasticsearch/issues/900
Temporary solution:
Removing the
/etc/elasticsearch/es-01/scripts
symlink created by pupped and creating the actual directory:After this the service starts successfully.
