Can't access Kibana after changing password

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Running via Docker on Ubuntu 17.04

sudo docker run -d -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -it -h elasticsearch --name elasticsearch docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:5.4.1
sudo docker run -d -p 5601:5601 -h kibana --name kibana --link elasticsearch:elasticsearch docker.elastic.co/kibana/kibana:5.4.1

Everything works fine until I go to the elastic user and change the password.

If I log out from there I get this from Chrome and something similar from Firefox. Clearing cookies for that domain does not help.

This page isn’t working

localhost redirected you too many times.
Try clearing your cookies.
ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

If I don't log out and navigate to another page I get the Status: Red page and no longer have a link to logout.

Did you update the password used by Kibana? You should add the following to the kibana.yml file (with your new password, of course):

elasticsearch.password: "supersecretpassword"

Thanks. That worked.
