Kibana is a separate application, you need to install it as per it's instructions.

_Please be specific._  
What errors? What commands are you running.

Simply stating "it doesn't work" is only frustrating yourself and us.

The Kibana link says this: Elasticsearch instance

From:

Extract your archive

Open config/kibana.yml in an editor

Set the elasticsearch.url to point at your Elasticsearch instance

This is just what I want to know please!

URL of the Elasticsearch instance you want to connect to.

What is this url and Elasticsearch instance? Please provide a sample.

</div>

The elasticsearch url you need is written in the log you posted:

```
[Eson the Searcher] publish_address {127.0.0.1:9200}, bound_addresses {127.0.0.1:9200}, {[::1]:9200}

```

So the part you need is 127.0.0.1:9200, which should be equivalent to the default in kibana.yml:

```
# elasticsearch.url: "http://localhost:9200"

```

There is plenty of documentation available how publish\_address / bound\_adresses work in elasticsearch. There is no difference between windows and linux.

Ok, so where will this code be put? In the kibana or in the Elasticsearch config?

```
     # elasticsearch.url: "http://localhost:9200"
```

</div>

Also, I saw how to edit the cluster name, the [node.name](http://node.name), and the network host address from a video by Zachary Tong.

```
  what components apply to these changes in version 2.1.0?  

  The video was on Elasticsearch 1.6.0

```

In Elasticsearch 2.1.0. you cannot find that code you told me to find so am confused.

</div>

In my Elasticsearch-2.1.0, what I found did not have what you told me to look for. What I found was this:

```
 # ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------
 #
 # Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6):
 #
 # network.host: 192.168.0.1
 #
 # Set a custom port for HTTP:
 #
 # http.port: 9200

</div>

You are looking at elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml, but asked question about kibana/config/kibana.yml.

To summarize, the default config should be fine. Lines beginning with `#` are comments and unused.

Point your browser to [http://localhost:5601](http://localhost:5601) and Kibana should fire up.

If you change the setting network.host in elasticsearch.yml, you will need to adapt kibana.yml accordingly.

Be aware that network.host setting has changed very much from 1.6 to 2.1 (see [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/breaking\_20\_network\_changes.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/breaking_20_network_changes.html)). There is also plenty of discussion about this fact in this forum, e.g. [ES 2.1 only bind on localhost](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/es-2-1-only-bind-on-localhost/36720/9) or [Connectivity issues with a new/upgraded 2.X cluster?

I am getting this error from the Kibana app settings:

Communities are often built on volunteer time both from participants and organizers. It is possible that your question or code contribution or suggestion might not receive an immediate response.

I have read through your documentation, but it doesn't explain how to solve a problem clearly. Do you think I would send hours waiting for an answer in this forum while I can find an answer online?

Check this first, and tell me what answer it has provided on how to solve the following problem from the following documentation:

```
 https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/settings.html

 Warning No default index pattern. You must select or create one to continue.

Do you have any idea of what you are doing?

I'd really recommend that you read the entire first chapter of the official guide here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/intro.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/intro.html)

Then, when you know what is elasticsearch and how to use it, start index some contents.  
When done, start with Kibana.

Also there are a lot of resources on this website.  
For example this one: [https://www.elastic.co/webinars/get-started-with-elasticsearch/?baymax=default&elektra=docs&storm=top-video](https://www.elastic.co/webinars/get-started-with-elasticsearch/?baymax=default&elektra=docs&storm=top-video)

We will be happy to help you once you have a better idea of what you can do and how.

Finally, follow the help part: [https://www.elastic.co/help/](https://www.elastic.co/help/)

It gives some advices on how to ask questions.
