Hi,

I download kibana-6.4.1-darwin-x86\_64 and meet this issue when I tried to start it.  
./bin/kibana: line 24: /opt/kibana-6.4.1-darwin-x86\_64/bin/../node/bin/node: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

./bin/kibana: line 24: /opt/kibana-6.4.1-darwin-x86\_64/bin/../node/bin/node: Success

After uname -a, I got:  
Linux XXXX 4.4.0-137-generic #163-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 24 13:14:43 UTC 2018 x86\_64 x86\_64 x86\_64 GNU/Linux

My elasticsearch is elasticsearch-6.4.1

Could you help me with it. Thanks a lot!

That is a package for Mac OS X, but you seem to be running Ubuntu Linux. You need to download the correct package and reinstall.
