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 plugin script parses command-line options looking for Java system
properties and extracts these arguments to pass to the java command when
starting the JVM. Since elasticsearch-plugin allows arbitrary user
arguments to the JVM via ES_JAVA_OPTS, this parsing is unnecessary. This
commit removes this unnecessary

This commit modifies the packaging tests to account for the fact that
rpm behaves differently with respect to preserving directories marked as
"CONFIG | NOREPLACE" on older versions versus newer versions. Older
versions will leave the directory as-is while newer versions will append
the suffix ".rpmsave" to the directory name.

This change makes the vagrant tasks extend LoggedExec, so that the
entire vagrant output can be dumped on failure (and completely logged
when using --info). It should help for debugging issues like #18122.
Exit with proper exit code (1) and an error message if elasticsearch
executable binary does not exists or has insufficient permissions to

Fix exit code

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
In Elasticsearch 5.0.0, by default unquoted field names in JSON will be
rejected. This can cause issues, however, for documents that were
already indexed with unquoted field names. To alleviate this, a system
property has been added that can be enabled so migration can occur.
This system property will be removed in Elasticsearch 6.0.0
Resolves#17674
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.
This change makes specifying which boxes to run vagrant tests on a
little easier. Previously there were two tasks, checkPackages and
checkPackagesAllDistros. With this change, there is a single
packagingTest task. The boxes to run on are specified using the
gradle property vagrant.boxes, which can be easily specified on the
command line, or in a gradle properties file. There are also two
alias names, 'sample' for a yum and apt box, and 'all' for all boxes.
This commit ensures that the data, logs, and config directories have the
proper ownership after the packages are installed. Additionally, this
commit ensures that the configs in /etc/elasticsearch are preserved
after removal of the RPM package.
Debian asks during installation, if the configuration file should be updated.
This is asked via a prompt and thus hangs.
This adds an option to always update to the newer config file, so automated
installation keeps working.
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".
Site plugins used to be used for things like kibana and marvel, but
there is no longer a need since kibana (and marvel as a kibana plugin)
uses node.js. This change removes site plugins, as well as the flag for
jvm plugins. Now all plugins are jvm plugins.
Currently we use the "gradle project attachment plugin" to support
building elasticsearch as part of another project. However, this plugin
has a number of issues, a large part of which is requiring consistent
use of the projectsPrefix.
This change removes projectsPrefix, and adds support for a special
extra-plugins directory in the root of elasticsearch. Any projects
checked out within this directory will be automatically added to
elasticsearch.
This gets the tar and tar_plugins tests working in gradle. It does so by
adding a subproject, qa/vagrant, which adds the following tasks:

It does not make the "check" task depend on "checkPackages" so running the
vagrant tests is still optional. They are slow and depend on vagrant and
virtualbox.
The Package Verification tasks are useful for testing individual distros.
The Vagrant tasks are listed in `gradle tasks` primarily for discoverability.
This commit makes sure that the plugin script looks at user, group and permissions of the elasticsearch bin dir and copies them over to the plugin bin subdirectory, whatever they are, so that they get properly setup depending on how elasticsearch was installed. We also make sure that execute permissions are added for files (we already did this before).
Relates to #11016Closes#14088
Depending on how elasticsearch is installed, we have two scenarios to take into account that relate to user, group and permissions assigned to the config directory:
1) deb/rpm package: /etc/elasticsearch is root:elasticsearch 750 and the plugin script is run from root user
2) tar/zip archive: es config dir is most likely elasticsearch:elasticsearch and the plugin script is most likely run from elasticsearch user
When the plugin script copies over the plugin config dir within the es config dir, it should take care of setting the proper user, group and permissions, which vary depending on how elasticsearch was installed in the first place. Should be root:elasticsearch 750 if installed from a package, or elasticsearch:elasticsearch if installed from an archive.
This commit makes sure that the plugin script looks at user, group and permissions of the config dir and copies them over to the plugin config subdirectory, whatever they are, so that they get properly setup depending on how elasticsearch was installed in the first place. We also make sure that execute permissions are left untouched for files.
Relates to #11016Closes#14048
When generating the rpm and dep package we now set proper group (elasticsearch) and permissions (750) to the conf dir (default /etc/elasticsearch). Same for the scripts subdirectory.
Expanded the assert_file bash function to also optionally check the group of files, so we can actually test that the group was set correctly.

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.

package installation creates the plugin directory already so when a plugin
is installed it prints the additional line
Plugins directory [/tmp/elasticsearch/plugins] does not exist. Creating...
Plugin cli tools configures logging with whatever is in the logging.yml.
If a file appender is configured for any of the logs this will cause creation
of an empty log file. If a plugin was for example installed as root it will
create empty logs at es.home/logs.
This is problematic when for example plugins are installed as root and es is run
as service. Logs will then be created in /usr/share/elasticsearch/logs
and can later not be removed by for example dpkg -r or -purge.
To avoid this, configure the logger to use an appender that writes to the same
output that plugin cli tool does. This allows other components that are called
from Plugin cli tool to write to the same terminal that plugin cli tool writes to
by using the logging mechanism already in place.
The logging conf is not read at all pb plugin cli tool.
As a side effect, the loging level for components that are called
from the plugin command such as the jar hell check can now be configured
with -Des.logger.level which makes it easier to debug the jar hell check.
Installs javatana in vivid, emulates its on-login actions when starting
elasticsearch and verifies that elasticsearch turns off javatana.
Relates to #13813
Before this commit he tests always run bin/plugin as root which is somewhat
unrealistic and causes trouble (log files owned by root instead of
elasticsearch). After this commit `bin/plugin` runs as root when elasticsearch
is installed via the repository and as elasticsearch otherwise which is much
more realistic.
This also adds extra timeout to starting elasticsearch which is required
when all the plugins are installed. And it fixes up a problem with logging
elasticsearch's log if elasticsearch doesn't start which came up multiple
time while debugging this problem.
Also adds docs recommending running `bin/plugin` as the user that owns the
Elasticsearch files or root if installed with the packages.
Closes#13557
This adds SuSe Linux Enterprise Server 12 to the list of tested VMs.
SLES 12 is using systemd, so that the current RPM works
out of the box.
SLES12 however is already quite old and does not ship with java8, so this
required adding an opensuse repo.
Fix the vagrant tests after azure was split into 3 plugins. The tests
need to list all the plugins and some dependency so we can make sure the
plugin can be installed and uninstalled.
Until now we had a cloud-azure plugin which is providing 3 distinct features:
* discovery on Azure
* snapshot/restore on Aure
* SMB store
This commit splits the plugin by feature so people can use either one or the other or both features.
Doc is updated accordingly.
Right now we execute some debian-isms in the init.d tests. This switches to
trying both the debian and centos ways to stop services from starting
automatically.
The AWS plugin was broken into discovery-ec2 and repository-s3 so we can't
test the old plugin and must test the new ones.
Fixed some wording issues in test names.
This changes the packaging tests to start Elasticsearch with all plugins
installed and checks `_cat/plugins?h=c` against the list of plugins in
the plugins directory. If the list differs, error! So it proves that the
plugins can be installed using bin/plugin as shipped in the rpm and deb
packages.
Closes#13254
There are two other obvious ways to implement the "packages don't start
elasticsearch" checks but when you work through them they aren't as nice
as the implementation of the checks that we use now. This just adds
documentation to that effect.
We don't want either the deb or rpm package to start elasticsearch as soon
as they install nor do we want the package to register elasticsearch to
start on restart. That action is reserved for the administrator. This adds
tests for that.
Closes#13122
To do this we:
1. All the rpm based distros we test support Java 8. We just ask to install
it.
2. There is a ppa that works for the Ubuntus. We just add that for them.
3. Debian Jessie has Java 8 in its backports. We just add that repository.
4. Debian Wheezy doesn't have Java 8 easily accessible so we drop it. We
could add it back with Orache Java 8 at a later date but that will take a
few more backflips and won't support things like vagrant-cachier.
This required a ton of rebuilding of vagrant boxes so it also fixes:
1. apt-get update is run too frequently
2. Lots of weird warning messages are spit out of apt-get
3. Switch from the chef provided based images to those provided by boxcutter.
The chef images has left vagrant atlas!
