Ahoi everyone,

I've installed the .rpm of elasticsearch on a server running CentOS. After that, i installed Kibana by using the tar.gz file

Opened ports 9200 / 9300 / 5601 on firewall.

Since this is running on a remote server, I can't figure out the next steps. Opening Kibana in a browser is showing me a blank site. How can I get it to work?

That would suggest that something else is already using the port?

Also, why not use the Kibana RPM?

I ran the ./kibana installer again. Guess the previous version was running on that port. I will try the rpm as well. Do I have to change the localhost in the yml settings to the IP of the server?

Ran the RPM installer of KIBANA. How can I get access to the GUI via Browser on my local Machine?

curl [http://localhost:5601](http://localhost:5601)

\<script\>var hashRoute = '/app/kibana';

var defaultRoute = '/app/kibana';

var hash = window.location.hash;

if (hash.length) {

window.location = hashRoute + hash;

} else {

window.location = defaultRoute;

}\</script\>
