kibana cannot connect to elasticsearch when searchguard is on with ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException[0]

hello i’m sorry for asking so many questions but i couldn’t get searchguard to work with kibana 4.0.2. and i couldn’t figure out what’s the problem…

btw, plain search against elasticsearch works and searchguard seems to be functioning as intended. it just stops working whenever kibana is involved…

kibana goes to the following error page as soon as i verify myself as user ‘marketing’ with role ‘guest’:

Fatal Error

Attached is the elasticsearch log.

first: why “searchguard.enabled: false” ?

second: seems the “ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException” is coming from kibana, there is no error in the logfile you provided. Pls. look into the kibana logs

and make sure you configured kibana to use a username/password in kibana.yml

If your Elasticsearch is protected with basic auth, this is the user credentials

used by the Kibana server to perform maintence on the kibana_index at statup. Your Kibana

users will still need to authenticate with Elasticsearch (which is proxied thorugh

the Kibana server)

kibana_elasticsearch_username: user

kibana_elasticsearch_password: pass

Sorry the configuration is for when elasticsearch is starting, i disabled searchguard in the beginning because i had to create the acl entry, i enabled searchguard after that and restarted the cluster.
and yes i did configure kibana_elasticsearch_user and kibana_elasticsearch_pass and actually gave it admin power(which is different from user marketing’s privileges, i don’t know if that would cause a problem but i doubt so). so yea… anyone got kibana to work and would like to share a set of working configuration? please?

first: why “searchguard.enabled: false” ?

second: seems the “ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException” is coming from kibana, there is no error in the logfile you provided. Pls. look into the kibana logs

and make sure you configured kibana to use a username/password in kibana.yml

If your Elasticsearch is protected with basic auth, this is the user credentials

used by the Kibana server to perform maintence on the kibana_index at statup. Your Kibana

users will still need to authenticate with Elasticsearch (which is proxied thorugh

the Kibana server)

kibana_elasticsearch_username: user

kibana_elasticsearch_password: pass

Sorry the configuration is for when elasticsearch is starting, i disabled searchguard in the beginning because i had to create the acl entry, i enabled searchguard after that and restarted the cluster.
and yes i did configure kibana_elasticsearch_user and kibana_elasticsearch_pass and actually gave it admin power(which is different from user marketing’s privileges, i don’t know if that would cause a problem but i doubt so). so yea… anyone got kibana to work and would like to share a set of working configuration? please?

first: why “searchguard.enabled: false” ?

second: seems the “ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException” is coming from kibana, there is no error in the logfile you provided. Pls. look into the kibana logs

and make sure you configured kibana to use a username/password in kibana.yml

If your Elasticsearch is protected with basic auth, this is the user credentials

used by the Kibana server to perform maintence on the kibana_index at statup. Your Kibana

users will still need to authenticate with Elasticsearch (which is proxied thorugh

the Kibana server)

kibana_elasticsearch_username: user

kibana_elasticsearch_password: pass

hello i’m sorry for asking so many questions but i couldn’t get searchguard to work with kibana 4.0.2. and i couldn’t figure out what’s the problem…

btw, plain search against elasticsearch works and searchguard seems to be functioning as intended. it just stops working whenever kibana is involved…

kibana goes to the following error page as soon as i verify myself as user ‘marketing’ with role ‘guest’:
