I installed Kibana and elasticsearch version 5.5.3 on the same server. I was able to install both of them and access them on their respective ports. But, I would like to see monitoring so, I tried to install x-pack 5.5.3 on Kibana and Elasticsearch. After that kibana was not able to access Elasticsearch.
When I checked kibana.stderr logs, I see:
> Unhandled rejection [illegal\_argument\_exception] No endpoint or operation is available at [\_xpack] :: {"path":"/\_xpack","statusCode":400,"response":"{"error":{"root\_cause":[{"type":"illegal\_argument\_exception","reason":"No endpoint or operation is available at [\_xpack]"}],"type":"illegal\_argument\_exception","reason":"No endpoint or operation is available at [\_xpack]"},"status":400}"}

This is how my Kibana landing page looks like:

It doesn't look like X-Pack is actually installed on your ES cluster.
Is it possible that the install failed? or that you haven't restarted the cluster after the install?
