I have two nodes installed with elastic 6.5.4 and kibana 6.5.4 on one node. I have made a cluster and it is working fine. I have installed APM 6.5.4 to check alerting in Kibana but whenever I click on APM it shows that APM is not installed although I have installed APM and it is running fine. In Dev Tools I am not able to get anything. Please see the output below:-
{
"took" : 0,
"timed\_out" : false,
"\_shards" : {
"total" : 0,
"successful" : 0,
"skipped" : 0,
"failed" : 0
},
"hits" : {
"total" : 0,
"max\_score" : 0.0,
"hits" :
}
}
Please suggest what I am missing here.

Which [APM agent](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/index.html) and which version are you using? Have you checked APM Server logs to see if some issues are logged?

Hi @simitt
Thanks for quick reply. Actually I am new to APM and did whatever was mentioned on the elastic site to use APM. So I changed the config as per the site. I don't have the logs directory itself. Please see below

APM version is apm-server-6.5.4-linux-x86\_64
I have extracted APM and changed the port host: "0.0.0.0:8200" and hosts: ["10.182.197.132:9200","10.182.197.160:9200"]. Apart from these there is no change. Please let me know if I have to configure anything else.

Could it be you haven't configured an APM agent yet? You can find an [overview about all involved components for APM](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/get-started/current/overview.html), also describing how to set up an Elastic APM agent. Without an agent, no data are captured.
If you have installed the APM Server with `apt` or `yum` the default location for logs is `/var/log/apm-server`. You can find more information about [default paths](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/server/6.5/directory-layout.html#_default_paths).

Hi Simitt,
I have downloaded the Linux package and installed it. I haven't installed any agent till now, so will install the agent and let you know.
