Hello All,
I'm trying to install Tableau Server 2019.1 on RHEL Server 7.4 , and after following every instruction on :
I keep getting an error on server initialization step. The error starts when I run the command which is the first step in initializing the server:
tsm initialize --request-timeout 1800
The initialization always fails at finalizing topology. On searching the error logs mentioned, in tabadmincontroller, I found the error is thrown at callback:
com.tableausoftware.tabadmin.webapp.asyncjobs.InitializeServerJob
where several services are restarted. The error is generated when starting the service elasticserver with the following exception:
The following services on node node1 are in failed states, look into their corresponding logs for more details: elasticserver_0=ENABLE_FAILED
I examined the ElasticServer logs too and the issue seems to be this:
com.tableausoftware.elasticserver.ElasticServerApp - Executing searchguard command:[/var/opt/tableau/tableau_server/data/tabsvc/elasticserver/0/run-sgadmin.sh]
main : INFO com.tableausoftware.elasticserver.ElasticServerApp - search guard command output: Search Guard Admin v6
WARNING: Seems you want connect to the Elasticsearch HTTP port.
sgadmin connects on the transport port which is normally 9300.
Will connect to localhost:8185
ERR: Seems there is no Elasticsearch running on localhost:8185 - Will exit
I'm not sure if this is a result of a simpler mistake, or a fault in the configuration of the Elastic Server Service. I have attached log files of both Tabadmincontroller and ElasticServer.
I got a similar result in Ubuntu 16.04.
Any help is much appreciated.

Hi Dan
Rather than 2019.1, it's best to go with 2019.1.1 (see notice here Tableau Server 2019.1 | Tableau Software )
I would recommend referring to the 2019.1.1 upgrade page here.....
Tableau Server 2019.1.1 | Tableau Software
Could you please keep us posted on how you get on?
Thanks, Ciara
