I have version 6.0 of kibana and i am now getting the following error in kibana dashboards which i was not getting before and I dont know what I am doing differently.

i am importing the dashboard and index pattern using the following in

/usr/share/filebeat/bin/./filebeat setup -E "setup.kibana.host=http://172.16.99.55:5601" -E "setup.dashboards.directory=/usr/share/filebeat/kibana/" -c /etc/filebeat/filebeatdashboard.yml --path.home /etc/filebeat/
