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)

The RPM init script did not include the check for `bin/elasticsearch` being
executable. This fix adds this checks and makes the tests pass.
This fixes the init script, so the tests pass on centos-6 again.
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.
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 commit fixes an issue where when starting Elasticsearch in
daemonized mode, a failed startup would not cause a non-zero exit code
to be returned. This can prevent the SysV init system from detecting
startup failures.
Closes#14163
It is rarely used and was not consistently handled by different distributions anyway.
This commit also adds a test for specifying CONF_DIR when installing plugins and
starting elasticsearch.
relates to #12712 and #12954closes#5329closes#13715
When installed as a service with a DEB or RPM package, we should gently wait for elasticsearch to stop (flushing indices on closing can take some time) and never kill the process.
Closes#11248
This change creates a proper `distribution` modules in which we have today packaging for
all of our four current packages:
* zip
* tar.gz
* rpm
* deb
Licenes have moved into the distribution project as well. So have the config/ and the bin/ directory
from the core/ project.
The RPM package is now built, if rpmbuild exists.
The bats tests have been moved as well.
Also the zip distribution now executes the REST integration tests.
