I have started elasticsearch 6.3 and then kibana 6.3 with changes in kibana.yml---\> elasticsearchurl field. My console shows no error but kibana doesnt start. I get "Kibana did not load properly. Check the server output for more information." wen i hit localhost:5601.  
Following is the log i get which keeps on iterating constantly:

By default, everything works without any modification of the conf files.

Can I have your changes?

I just changed these:

# The URL of the Elasticsearch instance to use for all your queries.

elasticsearch.url: "[http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200)"

# Set the value of this setting to true to log all events, including system usage information

# and all requests.

logging.verbose: true

I was getting the same. Deleting the monitoring indices and letting ES re-create them fixed it for me.
