First run error, "Can't find variable: ZeroClipboard"

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

I am new the ELK and I am working setting up a stack on a virtual machine. Everything appears to be running fine (Elasticsearch, Kibana, Nginx, Logstash). But when I try to bring up Kibana in my browser I immediately get an error message, ReferenceError: Can't find variable: ZeroClipboard (http://192.168.33.134/index.js?_b=7562:94153). I am running the latest version of Kibana (4.1.2) on Ubuntu 14.

I tried running Kibana with logging enabled but that didn't seem to reveal anything. The issue appears to be entirely JS based (at least that is the only place it is manifesting).

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the issue might be?

IIRC you've trimmed down the Kibana configuration file too much. You need to set the plugin variable (don't recall its name) as it's done in the example configuration file shipped with Kibana.

Thanks, that was it. I was following a tutorial that is a few months old and it had me creating a config file with only the "host" key defined.
