Something is wrong with your configuration. Please provide the following data

  1. Result of http://kibana.host:5601/api/v1/configuration/sgconfig Substitute kibana.host:5601 with your kibana hostname and port.
  2. SG config from elasticsearch/plugins/search-guard-7/sgconfig/sg_config.yml
  3. Value of systeminfo from your browser Session Storage

Hi, I’m putting together a redacted version of config files for you. Can I PM that?

Can I PM that?

Sure, you can send a personal message to me.

Naturally, I get dragged onto another task for a sprint… will get this to you asap now.

We have it fixed. If you give me the exact Kibana version, I can create a build for you to try it before the release.
