How can i fixed this ? i have installed java, and it's version javac 1.8.0_151

what could go wrong with my code ? `

回答1:

1. Go to /etc/sysconfig/elasticsearch

2. Add ES_JAVA_OPTS="-Djna.tmpdir=/var/lib/elasticsearch/tmp".

   (For newer Elasticsearch, use Djava.io.tmpdir instead of Djna.tmpdir)

3. Start Elasticsearch using systemctl start elasticsearch or service start elasticsearch.
4. You can see now tmp folder created inside /var/lib/elasticsearch/.
5. This folder should have execute permission for elasticsearch user
6. Check the permission with name i -l /var/lib/elasticsearch

7. Make sure the permission file have something like below permission

   dr-xr-xr-x root          root          /
   drwxr-xr-x root          root          var
   drwxr-xr-x root          root          lib
   drwxr-x--- elasticsearch elasticsearch elasticsearch
   

I hope your issue will be resolved.

回答2:

Check the permissions on your /tmp/ directory. It must have had noexec.

/tmp needs exec to support JNA. A workaround is to specify a tmp directory in elasticsearch sysconfig file.

Something like export JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.io.tmpdir=$ES_HOME/tmp"

Make sure there is a $ES_HOME/tmp directory and elasticsearch user has write permissions to it.

I had this issue as I was using a hardened OS and also because the default umask is 0027.

I had the same issue on a CentOS7 cPanel server with ElasticSearch 7.8 installed via YUM. As per the answer, I did the following:

1. Set ES_JAVA_OPTS="-Djna.tmpdir=/var/lib/elasticsearch/tmp" in /etc/sysconfig/elasticsearch
2. mkdir -p /var/lib/elasticsearch/tmp
3. chown -R elasticsearch.elasticsearch /var/lib/elasticsearch/tmp

回答4:

The same problem happened to me on Windows 10 when running from command prompt:

unable to load JNA native support library, native methods will be disabled.

To solve this, it was enough to run elasticsearch.exe with Admin rights (Click Start -> type "Command" -> right click on "Command Prompt" -> select "Run as Administrator")

回答5:

For me below worked:

PUT your_index_name/_settings
    {
    "index": {
    "blocks": {
    "read_only_allow_delete": "false"
    }
    }
    }

I followed below link:

On Ubuntu 18.04, the solution was

sudo systemctl edit --full elasticsearch.service

adding a line

Environment=ES_JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/lib/elasticsearch/tmp"

exitting with -x as in vi

restarting the service

sudo systemctl restart elasticsearch.service

Okay i have find the solution. Apparently my vm memory storage (RAM) was 1 GB - 2 GB, so i increase my VM's RAM capacity to at least 4GB and i reboot the machine. And elastic search started work just fine.
