I installed PMT 2023 on a REHL 9.3-0.5.el9.x86_64. I accepted all of the defaults from the installer. When the installer finished it said it had some errors and I should look at the log files. I went to where it told me the log files were but there were no log files. Trying to connect through a browser returned a 404 page not found error. I stopped and then started the PMT and when I started the PMT I got the error below which probably explains why there were no log files. It seems there is a permissions issue.
[cimwebadm@tx11cofu01lvtst bin]$ sudo ./perfmontoolset start

Error while starting elasticsearch. Logs are available at /apps/ColdFusion2023performancemonitoringtoolset/datastore/logs
Looking at the installed directories everything is owned by root and the group is root. I created the log folders at the root level of the ColdFusion2023performancemonitoringtoolset folder and the datastore folder and set them to owned by root and group cimwebadm which is my user. I tried to start it up again and I get the same error.
I could change the permissions to 777 but that seems a bit drastic.
Where is this 'logs/gc.log' file? If the installer was supposed to create it and didn't can I just create a blank file with that name in the log folder?
