Hi Team,

While upgrading Appian server to 24.3, after installation at the time of starting search server  I have received this error :-

[WARN ][com.amazonaws.auth.profile.internal.BasicProfileConfigFileLoader] [localhost] Unable to load config file null
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.io.FilePermission" "/cs/appian/.aws/config" "read")

ERROR: Elasticsearch did not exit normally - check the logs at /ps/appian/appian/logs/search-server/appian-search-cluster.log

Elasticsearch died while starting up, with exit code 1

Thanks in advance.

Hi Shrikant, I am seeing the same error after upgrading to 24.3 when starting Appian. Were you able to solve the issue?

we need run this command as root user to resolve the issue :- sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
