Questions:

_1: How to run docker-compose.yml with commands i.e. command: bash -c "service elasticsearch start" for given docker-compose and docker version ?_

[DhairyashilBhosale]

service elasticsearch is not keep running, so the after adding bash -c "service elasticsearch start && tail -f /dev/null its working fine ,
Please check after $ docker ps -a

CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES bfbc12a69a8a elasticsearch:latest "/docker-entrypoint.s" 13 seconds ago Up 12 seconds 0.0.0.0:9200->9200/tcp, 9300/tcp elkdockerdir_elk_1

running but when testing elasticsearch by using curl:
$ curl 'http://localhost:9200/?pretty'
its giving error like:
curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer
Also http://localhost:9200 is not working...

Not getting the exact issue...

[DhairyashilBhosale]

issues :
elk_1 | max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] likely too low, increase to at least [262144]

Solution:
$ sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

@DhairyashilBhosale it sounds like you figured out what the problem with this is, so I'm going to close this. Let me know if I've closed it in error.
