hi, as described here, we have set the environment variable to our “chainpem” likely correctly. File: /usr/share/kibana/bin/kibana (see last line) #!/bin/sh SCRIPT=$0 # SCRIPT may be an arbitrarily deep series of symlinks. Loop until we have the concrete path. while [ -h "$SCRIPT" ] ; do ls=$…

I think you need to load the environment variable through the systemd service. The kibana service file will load environment variables from a file that can be found in 2 locations, which one will depend on your distribution (readhat or debian based). These are the locations: EnvironmentFile=-/etc…

Kibana cannot reach epr.elastic.co even though "chainpem" is set

Are those logs from Kibana?

Did you register the proxy?

BTW minor, Kibana is nodejs not Java

Also Others did get this to work with NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS

Did you try running like this. And made sure that file is readable by Kibana user / permissions are correct

NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS="/etc/kibana/CA_Bundle_2024.pem" /usr/share/kibana/bin/kibana
