I have installed kibana 6.4.2 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.4 (Maipo). It just crashes randomly. Any help in locating logs or enabling would help. btw is this is a known issue ?
i have set logging.dest: /var/log/kibana.log but dont see much info in it regarding crash.
Can you share which package you downloaded? There's two possible areas, one is the system journal if using systemd (journalctl -fu kibana.service) and ~/var/log/kibana. This is the first report of crashing I've heard, but 6.4 is recent so there hasn't been time to collect. Are you using kibana or kibana-oss?
I m waiting for crash. I downloaded 6.4.2 package from https://www.elastic.co/downloads/kibana . I m using kibana.
Hey Rajesh,
Why aren't you using the rpm package for Red Hat? Check out https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/rpm.html

just curious what will be the difference ? reason i downloaded linux 64 bit gz file is that i can install in my desired location with enough storage. with RPM i guess i can modify too but it was very simpler for me via gz file.
Rajesh,
It just my personal opinion that on CentOS / Red Hat you should just use the rpm package. I think you will have less chance on misconfigurations or bugs when using the default install paths and default rpm package.
