I installed per the instructions at
https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/install-and-configure/install-opensearch…,
but it fails to start:
$ sudo systemctl start opensearch
Job for opensearch.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status opensearch.service" and "journalctl -xeu

It’s a brand new debian bookworm instance I just spun up for this. The only
configuration I’ve done was to increase vm.max_map_count per their recommendation:
$ cat /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count
262144
Any ideas?

I want to install elasticsearch on a VPS

instructions at
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Puppet don’t match what I’m
actually seeing in Horizon. I go to the Puppet Configuration tab for my instance and
there’s no project/common/all sub-pages as described under Apply a puppet role to or
change hiera config of an individual instance.
Hi Roy,
Elasticsearch is licensed under a non-free license, so I would
encourage you to use OpenSearch instead, as the Cloud Services terms
of use [1] require that only OSI-compliant software is installed in
Cloud VPS instances.
The screenshots included in
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Puppet are a bit old, the
interface is now slightly different. We will update that page, but in
the meantime my recommendation is to ignore Puppet and install
OpenSearch by logging into your Cloud VPS instance and following the
upstream instructions at
https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/install-and-configure/install-opensearch…
Let us know if that works or if you run into further issues!
Thanks,
Francesco
