Facing error while starting kibana & trying to connect to elasticsearch version 8.5.1

[Sunil_Jagtap]

Hi All,

I am referring this post which is more relevant to my issue,

Kibana - Unable to retrieve version information from Elasticsearch nodes. self signed certificate in certificate chain

If you want to use the enrollment process, then you should not make configuration changes to your kibana.yml but let the enrollment process handle this for you. Remove elasticsearch.hosts: ["https://10.0.2.15:9200"] and start the kibana service again. When you navigate to http://localhost:5601/ you will be prompted to enter the enrollment token you generated in Elasticsearch ( please generate a new one, each enrollment token is only valid for 30 minutes)

In my case I am using kibana plugin development environment & when I am trying to invoke enrollment process process using "yarn start" it is taking me to below error on kibana terminal :

[2024-05-22T10:52:31.044+05:30][ERROR][elasticsearch-service] Unable to retrieve version information from Elasticsearch nodes. socket hang up - Local: 127.0.0.1:60140, Remote: 127.0.0.1:9200

As per documentation : Start the Elastic Stack with security enabled automatically | Elasticsearch Guide [8.13] | Elastic

I tried below step :

• Detached mode (non-browser)Run the kibana-setup tool and pass the generated enrollment token with the --enrollment-token parameter.

bin/kibana-setup --enrollment-token

As "bin/kibana-setup" not exist on kibana plugin development environment I tried executing the script manually from location :

Sunils-MacBook-Pro:scripts sunil$ pwd
/Users/sunil/Documents/workspace/kibana/src/dev/build/tasks/bin/scripts

Sunils-MacBook-Pro:scripts sunil$ ./kibana-setup --enrollment-token [ENCRYPTED_TEXT]
**unable to find usable node.js executable.**

Looking for help, thanks in advance.
