Elasticsearch Error : BindTransportException[Failed to bind to [9300-9400]

I have installed elasticsearch latest version 5.5 on my CentOS server. In order to change the IP address, I have added the below lines in elasticsearch.yml file:

network.host = xyz.xyz.xy.xy (My Centos IP address)
http.port: 9200

When I start my elasticsearch, I am getting the below errors:

I am able to start elasticsearch without editing my elasticsearch.yml. But I have to access elasticsearch outside of my centos machine. Is there any other setting that I should change to make it work. Any help is appreciated

I had the same error. It vanished after following Unable to bind elasticsearch transport service to external interface.

Newer elasticsearch versions distinguish between development mode and production mode. If you define any non-loopback IP (i.e. most probably anything else than 127.0.0.1) there will be some tests. From the logs:

... bound or publishing to a non-loopback address, enforcing bootstrap checks ... node validation exception [1] bootstrap checks failed [1]: the default discovery settings are unsuitable for production use; at least one of [discovery.seed_hosts, discovery.seed_providers, cluster.initial_master_nodes] must be configured

So, if you need a non-loopback IP, e.g. define in elasticsearch.yml:

node.name: $myNodeName cluster.initial_master_nodes : $myNodeName

and restart again.

Is is possible that are you trying to bind to an IP address to listen on via the network.host or bind.host parameters, that does not exist on this system?

Can you share the output of ip addr list and your elasticsearch.yml file (you can just use grep "^[^#]" elasticsearch.yml to ignore comments.
