Since upgrading to Elastic Stack 7.11.2 with Search Guard 50.0.0, all users (including admin users) have read-only access in Kibana in Discover (unable to save searches, see screenshot):

I am also unable to access dev tools (see second screen shot):

Finally, as soon as I click on the space selector icon (the TS in the above screenshot), the icon vanishes. I can still access all spaces by entering the URL.

I am **assuming** that these are all permissions issues, and are all related, since the first two appear to be permissions issues, and I haven’t been able to find any information about this for the Elastic Stack 7.11.2 in general.

I have logs in DEBUG mode, but they are too large to upload, please let me know how I can get them to you and what other information you need.

Hi. In 7.11, we have a bug, the Kibana plugin doesn’t work properly without Multitenancy. Do you have Multitenancy disabled? Please share kibana.yml. Do you have any error in the web browser console log?

Could you please try the following build? [https://maven.search-guard.com//search-guard-kibana-plugin-snapshot/my-test-SNAPSHOT/search-guard-kibana-plugin-7.11.2-master-SNAPSHOT\_351-the-kibana-7-11-is-broken-if-multitenancy-is-disabled.zip](https://maven.search-guard.com//search-guard-kibana-plugin-snapshot/my-test-SNAPSHOT/search-guard-kibana-plugin-7.11.2-master-SNAPSHOT_351-the-kibana-7-11-is-broken-if-multitenancy-is-disabled.zip)

Yes. Multitenancy is disabled.

Here you go (note: we deploy to EKS via the Elasticsearch Helm charts, so many config options are handled outside `kibana.yml`):

Here’s what I’m getting from the console log:

I’ve rebuilt and deployed to my non-production cluster and it functions as expected. Am I safe to deploy this snapshot to the production cluster, or will there be a fix pushed soon?

Have you always used the xpack spaces? I don’t see `xpack.spaces.enabled: true` in kibana.yml. Kibana 7.11 made spaces enabled by default. I have just realised that the test build which I provided works only if the spaces plugin is disabled. We provide the proper fix and the patch release soon. I’ll ping you. The issue is [The Kibana 7.11 is broken if multitenancy is disabled (#351) · Issues · search-guard / Search Guard Kibana Plugin · GitLab](https://git.floragunn.com/search-guard/search-guard-kibana-plugin/-/issues/351)

You mean the workspaces? Yes - we’ve always used workspaces, we don’t use multitenancy; many of our applications are intertwined, so it makes more sense to use workspaces to segregate out teams, but still allow them access to other teams’ applications, when necessary.

I only have the default workspace available in my non-prod environment, so this might be the reason that it’s working as expected in non-prod.

Hi. I mean Spaces: [Spaces | Kibana Guide [8.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/xpack-spaces.html) In the non-prod, where you installed my test build, could you please create a couple of spaces and tell me if it behaves as you expect? I test it too.

OK. We’re talking about the same thing, then. In an earlier version of the Elastics documentation they were referred to as workspaces, that’s what I’ve always referred to them as. I’ve never had spaces explicitly enabled in my `kibana.yml`, AFAIK, they’ve always been implicitly enabled, even prior to 7.11. I’ve been using them since sometime in early 7.x without issues.

As far as creating a few in my non-prod, I’ve created them and they work as expected; I haven’t tried restarting the cluster with them enabled yet, however.

I’ve restarted the non-prod cluster, and everything is continuing to work as expected.

Thank you for your tests! We are working on the integration tests for this fix now.

In the meantime, I’ll repeat my earlier question - given these results, should I be OK at the moment to push this to my prod cluster?

Thanks!

Any updates on this? We’re in a situation right now, where it would be helpful to be able to save Searches and run ad hoc queries through the console…

Hi. The development of the integration tests takes more time than I expected. We do the patch this week. As far as I can see now, the fix, which is included in the test build, which I sent you, works as expected.

I just deployed the image to my prod cluster, and it’s also working as expected there. I’ll rebuild once you push the updated version, so that I can get any last-minute changes.

Thanks!

Just deployed the SG Kibana 50.1.0 patch to my non-prod cluster, and everything is working as expected. Thanks for the quick response and turnaround.
