Here are the logs from the pod startup:

Tried adding values into kibana.yaml and it doesn't looked to have helped.

we discovered that we had a previous service some time ago defined as simply "SERVER" and kube was injecting an env var for "SERVER\_PORT" of `SERVER_PORT=` `tcp://10.0.20.191:80` ! Which kibana with full integrity honors using env var over config file and hence our error; Adding `SERVER_PORT=5601` to extraVars fixed it.
