Graylog2 - Startup fail. Address already in use - elasticsearch

Question

I am trying to install graylog2. I have installed open-jdk7. I have also installed elasticsearch and mongodb using apt on ubuntu 14.04.
I am new to both graylog and elasticsearch. I just want to try a trail installation and try these out. And I also did search similar questions and tried their suggestions. But none of them worked for my case.
I have followed the installation instructions on graylog.org. But when I try to start the graylog2 server I get the following error.

Elastic search is showing the following status
{
"cluster_name" : "graylog2",
"status" : "green",
"timed_out" : false,
"number_of_nodes" : 1,
"number_of_data_nodes" : 1,
"active_primary_shards" : 0,
"active_shards" : 0,
"relocating_shards" : 0,
"initializing_shards" : 0,
"unassigned_shards" : 0
}
The following are the changes I made to elasticsearch.yml
cluster.name: graylog2
network.bind_host: 127.0.0.1
network.host: 127.0.0.1
discovery.zen.ping.multicast.enabled: false
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["127.0.0.1", MYSYS IP]
and graylog2.conf
is_master = true
password_secret = changed
root_password_sha2 = changed
elasticsearch_max_docs_per_index = 20000000
elasticsearch_shards = 1
elasticsearch_replicas = 0
elasticsearch_cluster_name = graylog2
elasticsearch_discovery_zen_ping_multicast_enabled = false
elasticsearch_discovery_zen_ping_unicast_hosts = IP_ARR:9300
mongodb_useauth = false
I tried killing the process on the port 9300 and tried starting graylog again. But I got the following error

Can you please point out to what I am doing wrong here and what I am missing??

Answer 1

if ES and greylog2 running on same server, try (del/comment) in elasticsearch.conf
#transport.tcp.port: 9300
and (add/uncomment) in greylog.conf
elasticsearch_transport_tcp_port = 9350
