Briefly, this error occurs when OpenSearch cannot find the required Java classes in the classpath. The classpath is a parameter that tells the JVM where to look for user-defined classes and packages. The error message indicates that the system property “java.class.path” is empty or not correctly set. To resolve this issue, you can: 1) Check your JAVA_HOME environment variable to ensure it’s correctly set. 2) Verify your classpath to ensure it includes the necessary Java classes. 3) If you’re running OpenSearch from a script, ensure the script correctly sets the classpath.
