@wmstein It looks like Kibana is version 5.2.2 and Elasticsearch is 5.2.1, could we try updating Elasticsearch or downgrading Kibana (upgrading is preferred) to see if we continue to get this error? ---

Sure will do that. They were both 5.2.1 this morning but i tried to upgrade Kibana to see if that would fix it. Will reply shortly and send you a new log ---

@mwstein very interesting, I appreciate your patience running all of these queries for me. Let's try to delete the .kibana index, and it'll recreate it, I wanna see if it works the second time around. To do so, let's run `curl -XDELETE http://localhost:9200/.kibana` ---
