Hi Chris

This is fresh installation of Kibana 5.6.2. I had schema files from old kibana 4.5 and ES 2.3.3 which I modified accordingly for kibana 5.6.2. The fix your mentioned in the [link](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/upgrade-issue-with-elastic-stack-5-6-0-workaround-option-until-fix-is-available/100595) looks like is already committed to Kibana 5.6.1

I am running kibana 5.6.2 in a docker container on top of alpine. Following are the complete logs after starting kibana
