6.2.2 after X-pack timeout errors at start

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hello,

I am a new ELK stack user and I just installed X-pack on Elasticsearch and Kibana. After installation during Kibana startup (at the same time with Elasticsearch or independent of it) I always get timeout errors, you can see the command prompt standard output below. How can I get rid of them and what might me the reason?

I can actually access the web interface, but this really bugs me.

We ping every 2.5 seconds, so it's going to keep showing up. Your best bet would be to turn logging off. More info: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/2855

Thanks for the answer, by the way the time-out occurs in 3000 ms (3 s) is this adjustable? Is the ping interval adjustable? I do not want to turn logging off entirely (even the error messages will be disabled). Kibana did not use to give these errors, they began to occur only after installation of X-pack. May it have something to do?

I think there is an open issue on this : Linking it here:

I would suggest you to subscribe to the issue and get more updates on it .

Yes it is kind of hard-coded. So far I have tried adding xpack.security.enabled: false into Logstash configuration file and increasing the JVM heap values to 4 GB each - they were 2 GB before.
