Connection Failed : Your elasticsearch server is down or unreachable

Hello there,

I am currently doing an internship in which I need to have my VM installed with specific versions of ELK products. I got Kibana 3.1.2, Nginx, Elasticsearch 1.7.3, and Logstash 2.1.0 installed by myself, and the Linux version is Redhat.

Problem:
Chrome: When I try http://x.x.x.x/ on Chrome, I got an error "Connection Failed
Possibility #1: Your elasticsearch server is down or unreachable"[...], and the browser is showing "GET http://x.x.x.x/app/dashboards/default.json?1457344328763 net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED" in the console
Firefox: When I try http://x.x.x.x/ on Firefox, I got the Nginx welcome page "Welcome to nginx!
If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working. Further configuration is required."[...]

http://x.x.x.x:9200 shows this:

{
"status" : 200,
"name" : "bam_guillaume",
"cluster_name" : "bam_guillaume",
"version" : {
"number" : "1.7.3",
"build_hash" : "05d4530971ef0ea46d0f4fa6ee64dbc8df659682",
"build_timestamp" : "2015-10-15T09:14:17Z",
"build_snapshot" : false,
"lucene_version" : "4.10.4"
},
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}

Which means that elasticsearch is running properly.

panel_names: [

  'hits',
  'column',

  'bettermap',
  'query',
  'terms',
  'stats',
  'sparklines'
]

});
});

Any idea of which could be the cause ? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Resolved. httpd service was simply not started !
