"JAVA_HOME points to an invalid Java installation issue" with service install command in elastic search
cmd, elasticsearch, java, php
Solution
Open up and Look into the `service.bat` file:
It searches for:
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe
hence your `%JAVA_HOME%` should not include `bin` in it.
A workaround if you do not have privileges to set up the environmental variables:
open the `service.bat` file,
a) Remove the line:
if NOT DEFINED JAVA_HOME goto err
b) Replace `%JAVA_HOME%` with your java `jdk` path, something like: `C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_51`
Note: This is just a workaround which works all the time.
