I have a .NET project with integration tests that require a local running instance of Elasticsearch. I'm trying to get these running on AppVeyor. Here are the relevant bits from my appveyor.yml:
install:
- cinst elasticsearch
- elasticsearch-service-x64 start
The first command, which installs Elasticsearch via Chocolatey, works swimmingly. The second, which starts the service, succeeds roughly half the time and all my tests against the Elasticsearch instance are passing. The other half, however, the build fails immediately after that line with this message:
Command exited with code 5
Any ideas on how I can get this working reliably?
For completeness, here's the output of a failed build:
cinst elasticsearch
Chocolatey v0.10.8
