The environment variable CONF_DIR was previously inconsistently used in
our packaging to customize the location of Elasticsearch configuration
files. The importance of this environment variable has increased
starting in 6.0.0 as it's now used consistently to ensure Elasticsearch
and all secondary scripts (e.g., elasticsearch-keystore) all use the
same configuration. The name CONF_DIR is there for legacy reasons yet
it's too generic. This commit renames CONF_DIR to ES_PATH_CONF.

This commit introduces the elasticsearch-env script. The purpose of this
script is threefold:
- vastly simplify the various scripts used in Elasticsearch
- provide a script that can be included in other scripts in the
Elasticsearch ecosystem (e.g., plugins)
- correctly establish the environment for all scripts (e.g., so that
users can run `elasticsearch-keystore` from a package distribution
without having to worry about setting `CONF_DIR` first, otherwise the
keystore would be created in the wrong location)

This commit removes legacy checks for unsupported an environment
variable and unsupported system properties. This environment variable
and these system properties have not been supported since 1.x so it is
safe to stop checking for the existence of these settings.

Today we enable users to customize the environment through the use of
ES_INCLUDE. This made sense for legacy reasons when we did not have
nicities like jvm.options (so dumped JVM options in the default include
script) and somewhat duplicates some of the functionality that we will
need from a dedicated environment script. This commit removes support
for ES_INCLUDE as a first step towards a dedicated include script.

This commit removes the environment variable ES_JVM_OPTIONS that allows
the jvm.options file to sit separately from the rest of the config
directory. Instead, we use the CONF_DIR environment variable for custom
configuration location just as we do for the other configuration files.
Relates #25679
This commit removes the default path settings for data and logs. With
this change, we now ship the packages with these settings set in the
elasticsearch.yml configuration file rather than going through the
default.path.data and default.path.logs dance that we went through in
the past.

This commit removes path.conf as a valid setting and replaces it with a
command-line flag for specifying a non-default path for configuration.

This commit renames all rest test files to use the .yml extension
instead of .yaml. This way the extension used within all of
elasticsearch for yaml is consistent.
This change simplifies how the rest test runner finds test files and
removes all leniency. Previously multiple prefixes and suffixes would
be tried, and tests could exist inside or outside of the classpath,
although outside of the classpath never quite worked. Now only classpath
tests are supported, and only one resource prefix is supported,
`/rest-api-spec/tests`.

* Remove a checked exception, replacing it with `ParsingException`.
* Remove all Parser classes for the yaml sections, replacing them with static methods.
* Remove `ClientYamlTestFragmentParser`. Isn't used any more.
* Remove `ClientYamlTestSuiteParseContext`, replacing it with some static utility methods.
I did not rewrite the parsers using `ObjectParser` because I don't think it is worth it right now.
The environment variable ES_JVM_OPTIONS allows end-users to specify a
custom location for the jvm.options file. Unfortunately, this
environment variable is not exported from the SysV init scripts. This
commit addresses this issue, and includes a test that ES_JVM_OPTIONS and
ES_JAVA_OPTS work for the SysV init packages.
Relates #21445
At one point in the past when moving out the rest tests from core to
their own subproject, we had multiple test classes which evenly split up
the tests to run. However, we simplified this and went back to a single
test runner to have better reproduceability in tests. This change
removes the remnants of that multiplexing support.
On ubuntu 14.04, which uses upstart, where as our debian package uses
sysvinit, there is no stdout/stderr message printed when starting up,
because the start-stop-daemon swallows it.
As Elasticsearch is started to daemonize, we can remove the background
flag from the start-stop-daemon and thus see, if the system does not have
enough memory for starting up - something that happens often on VMs, since
Elasticsearch 5.0 uses 2gb by default instead of one.

This makes it obvious that these tests are for running the client yaml
suites. Now that there are other ways of running tests using the REST
client against a running cluster we can't go on calling the shared
client yaml tests "REST tests". They are rest tests, but they aren't
**the** rest tests.
This adds a header that looks like `Location: /test/test/1` to the
response for the index/create/update API. The requirement for the header
comes from https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.htmlhttps://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-7.1.2 claims that relative
URIs are OK. So we use an absolute path which should resolve to the
appropriate location.
Closes#19079
This makes large changes to our rest test infrastructure, allowing us
to write junit tests that test a running cluster via the rest client.
It does this by splitting ESRestTestCase into two classes:
* ESRestTestCase is the superclass of all tests that use the rest client
to interact with a running cluster.
* ESClientYamlSuiteTestCase is the superclass of all tests that use the
rest client to run the yaml tests. These tests are shared across all
official clients, thus the `ClientYamlSuite` part of the name.
This change tweaks the metadata version associated with the deb and rpm
packages. For rpm, dashes are allowed in versions, so we can use the
version as it already exists. For rpm, dashes are not allowed, so this
uses underscores instead. This only affects prerelease versions (eg
alpha/beta/rc), and usually someone doesn't specify the version, so the
inconsistency doesn't matter that much.
Today when parsing settings during bootstrap, we add a system property
for every Elasticsearch setting. Additionally, settings can be set via
system properties. This commit simplifies this situation.
- settings are no longer propogated to system properties
- system properties can not be used to set settings
- the "es." prefix on settings is no longer required (nor permitted)
- test logging has a dedicated system property (tests.logger.level)

Today when restarting Elasticsearch using the start-stop-daemon on
Debian-based systems using System V init, we sleep for one second
between the process successfully stopping and starting the process
again. This sleep is unnecessary as the stop function retries forever
until the previous instance successfully terminates. This commit removes
that unncessary sleep.

Fix exit code
Exit with proper exit code (1) and an error message if elasticsearch executable binary does not exists or has insufficient permissions to execute.
This changes our packaging to be explicit about the permissions of files
and directories in the tar.gz, rpm, and deb packages. This is to protect
against a user having an incorrectly set umask when installing.
Additionally, plugins that are installed now have their permissions set
by the plugin installation so that plugins that may have been packaged
with incorrect permissions are secured.
Resolves#17634
This commit adds a new configuration file jvm.options to centralize and
simplify management of JVM options. This separates the configuration of
the JVM from the packaging scripts (bin/elasticsearch*, bin/service.bat,
and init.d/elasticsearch) simplifying end-user operational management of
custom JVM options.
The build currently uses the old maven support in gradle. This commit
switches to use the newer maven-publish plugin. This will allow future
changes, for example, easily publishing to artifactory.
An additional part of this change makes publishing of build-tools part
of the normal publishing, instead of requiring a separate upload step
from within buildSrc. That also sets us up for a follow up to enable
precomit checks on the buildSrc code itself.
Today, certain bootstrap properties are set and read via system
properties. This action-at-distance way of managing these properties is
rather confusing, and completely unnecessary. But another problem exists
with setting these as system properties. Namely, these system properties
are interpreted as Elasticsearch settings, not all of which are
registered. This leads to Elasticsearch failing to startup if any of
these special properties are set. Instead, these properties should be
kept as local as possible, and passed around as method parameters where
needed. This eliminates the action-at-distance way of handling these
properties, and eliminates the need to register these non-setting
properties. This commit does exactly that.
Additionally, today we use the "-D" command line flag to set the
properties, but this is confusing because "-D" is a special flag to the
JVM for setting system properties. This creates confusion because some
"-D" properties should be passed via arguments to the JVM (so via
ES_JAVA_OPTS), and some should be passed as arguments to
Elasticsearch. This commit changes the "-D" flag for Elasticsearch
settings to "-E".
We currently use the full suite of packaged rest tests for each
distribution. We also used to run rest tests within core integ tests,
but this stopped working when we split out the test-framework, since the
test files are in there.
This change simplifies the code to run packaged rest tests just once,
for the integ-test-zip, and removes the unused rest tests from
test-framework. Distributions rest tests now check that all modules
were loaded.
This change removes the leftover pom files. A couple files were left for
reference, namely in qa tests that have not yet been migrated (vagrant
and multinode). The deb and rpm assemblies also still exist for
reference when finishing their setup in gradle.
