Hi. I am new to ElasticSearch and am trying to get up and running with Kibana. I already have ElasticSearch running and am completely confused with how to now get Kibana going as well. So i download and extracted Kibana to the same directory where my ElasticSearch is running from. Now i went into the config.js file and replaced a line with this: elasticsearch: “[http://bluerubez-elasticsearch.ngrok.com:80](http://bluerubez-elasticsearch.ngrok.com:80)”, Now... How do i start up Kibana ? I am not a networking guy at all. Also the name of the idk Marvel Character i got was Sam Wilson and my http is 10.0.0.4 and the port was 9200. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Ok just realized i was trying to use ngrok here also both all i want to do is first to replicate the tutorial then i can worry about ngrok later. So, in my config.js file what should i put here elasticsearch: “http:// ? ”, Then how do i : 1. _Copy_ the contents of the extracted directory to your webserver and then what do i type into the bowser to 1.

You need to use a webserver, Apache, nginx or IIS.
