Question

Answer 1

You should probably increase your max_map_count Kernel Parameter on Linux. I faced the same issue, and the following solution helped me.

Try running this in your terminal:

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

If it's not helping try to reload config as root using:

sudo sysctl -p

And after that try to run your container with elasticsearch again.
