Kibana Config:

 server.host: "localhost"
 elasticsearch.url: "https://search-somelogs-adfdadffahkmxu.eu-central-1.es.amazonaws.com:443"
 kibana.index: ".kibana"
 elasticsearch.requestTimeout: 90000

 xpack.security.enabled: false
 xpack.graph.enabled: false
 xpack.ml.enabled: false
 xpack.monitoring.enabled: false
 xpack.reporting.enabled: false
 xpack.watcher.enabled: false

Where as curl is working fine:

curl -X GET "https://search-somelogs-abcd.eu-central-1.es.amazonaws.com:443"
{
"name" : "asdfasf",
"cluster_name" : "940810875359:somelogs",
"cluster_uuid" : "asdfadsfuuidadafdsf",
"version" : {
"number" : "6.3.1",
"build_flavor" : "oss",
"build_type" : "zip",
"build_hash" : "e6df130",
"build_date" : "2018-08-01T07:23:36.254471Z",
"build_snapshot" : false,
"lucene_version" : "7.3.1",
"minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
"minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
},
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}

You cannot use X-Pack with AWS ES sorry to say.

@warkolm I want to use kibana 6.3.1only without X-pack, where can I get it?
