Default Kibana Index Not Working

I'm running in Docker with no permanent storage currently. This seems like it would be related to:

Kibana 7 can't load index pattern

Hello, I'm facing the same issue, index-pattern present in the index .kibana ( I can get them when curling elastic) however when I tried to access "Saved Object"kibana return a 400 Bad Request. And elasticsearch have error logs that pop at the same time : Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Fielddata is disabled on text fields by default. Set fielddata=true on [type] in order to load fielddata in memory by uninverting the inverted index. Note that this can however use significant …

however I've tried the mentioned fixes without luck. I load in a random point with something simple like:

curl -X PUT "localhost:9200/sample-data/_doc/1?pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
    "geometry": {
      "lat": 35.685,
      "lon": 33.3978
    }
}'

Then I go and create an index pattern, it shows me the fields as expected, I then go to discover and it asks me to create an index pattern all over again. Same when I go to maps - just says I don't have an index pattern.

Been using Elasticsearch a long time and must have done something like the above 10000 times and never seen this before. Did something change?

It was a personal problem. I had remade the Elasticsearch instance, but Kibana was running outside a container. I didn't investigate what the problem was, but I'm guessing it caused a bunch of issues with the Kibana index. Restarting Kibana cleared the errors.

When it doubt, restart it
