Hi guys!! im very new in the world of ELK,
I have installed a new and clean ubuntu 18.0 server, I have downloaded and installed elasticsearch version 7.6.0 and kibana 7.6.0, after basically configuring it:
elasticsearch.yml
path.data: /var/lib/elasticsearch
path.logs: /var/lib/elasticsearch
network.host: 123.45.657.89
http.port: 9200
discovery.seed_hosts: [“123.45.657.89”, “host2”]
kibana.yml
server.host: “123.45.657.89”
elasticsearch.hosts: [“http://123.45.657.89:9200”]
After that, I have configured the automatic startup of the services
sudo systemctl enable elasticsearch sudo systemctl enable kibana
sudo systemctl start elasticsearch sudo systemctl start kybana
At this point it worked fine, I could get through the browser to the kibana configuration panel without any problem.
The shit starts when I wanted to install searchguard plogin to put a security kit [Just some credentials for kibana and elasticsearch]
I have installed it as follows:
I downloaded from the official repository the pluggin of elasticsearch, specifically this one:
search-guard-kibana-plugin-7-7.6.0-40.1.0.zip
I have passed it to my vm and installed it as follows:
cd /usr/share/kibana
bin/kibana-plugin install file:usr/share/kibana/search-guard-kibana-plugin-7-7.6.0-40.1.0.zip --allow-root
and installed it correctly.
The installation of the plugin I have done with the service of elasticsearch and kibana stopped
Then I restarted them and the services were active
BUT… my problem is that now kibana doesn’t work, I try to enter through the browser and the screen stays like this:
Kibana server is not ready yet
Have I missed any settings? How did you finish setting the password?
Any help is welcome, all the information I find is diffused.
