After installing, elasticsearch will not start due to no logging configuration? #58
Description
I just did an initial test install with this role. I configured three nodes and ran the play. When I tried checking the health of the cluster, it became apparent that elasticsearch was not started.
So I tried starting it manually, and I got this:
root@node1:~# /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch Failed to configure logging...

I did try /etc/init.d/node1_elasticsearch start and it did not work, nor did it output any errors. Just Starting ... [OK]. /var/logs/elasticsearch is empty so I can't figure anything out from there.
So, what obvious step am I missing?
Should this kind of question be posted on discuss.elastic.co somewhere instead of here? If so, what forum?
