Kibana Server Not Ready

[John Stou]

Hello,

I get this error when i try to use the web interface:

" Kibana server is not ready yet"

The only error that seemed interesting is from elasticsearch.log:

[ERROR][o.e.x.s.a.e.ReservedRealm] [elasticsearch] failed to retrieve password hash for reserved user [elastic]

Please Assist

Thank you

Hi John!

Your problem is related to a local configuration issue. Elasticsearch has building users like elastic or kibana, and it seems the password for the elastic user is not the expected. 

You can check the reserved users are correctly set up in the elasticsearch.yml file. Also, this elastic documentation page could help you. It refers to a tool that sets the password for this kind of user.

Let me know if it works!

Regards,

Manuel.
