kibanaConfig:
kibana.yml: |

i got this error on kibana :
"message":"Unable to retrieve version information from Elasticsearch nodes. socket hang up"}
and in Elasticsearch :
{"type": "server", "timestamp": "2021-10-14T08:18:16,407Z", "level": "WARN", "component": "o.e.x.s.t.n.SecurityNetty4HttpServerTransport", "cluster.name": "Elasticsearch", "node.name": "Elasticsearch-master-0", "message": "received plaintext http traffic on an https channel, closing connection Netty4HttpChannel{localAddress=/10.25.3.245:9200, remoteAddress=/10.25.3.39:41280}", "cluster.uuid": "d8t801T\_RjKy0j11ErmA3A", "node.id": "fsj52VA8TCGvRml5N\_ckGA" }
it looks like the connection is in clear , but in my kibana conf it is in https
when i do a curl in the kibana pod to get the elesticsearhc i gor no error !!!!
thanks for your help

I'm surprised that Kibana even starts - `yaml` is case sensitive, and you should have `elasticsearch.*` settings in lowercase as all other settings (not sure if it's somehow normalized in k8s setup though).
Can you try to use lowercase everywhere?
