FATAL UnableToReadKeystore: unable to read keystore

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

I'm using an ubuntu 16.04 server on a VM.
and installed elasticsearch and kibana both version 7.14.
elasticsearch works properly.
but when I start the kibana service first it logs running on "systemctl status kibana" command after seconds it becomes activating and stopped at the end.
Startup log in "var/log/kibana/startup.log"

Configuring logger failed: UnableToReadKeystore: unable to read keystore

Can you share your kibana.yml and the entire Kibana log from startup to the error?
