Here's the full message:

> Kibana did not load properly. Check the server output for more information.

I'm using Kibana 5.0.0 on a Debian machine with Elasticsearch 5.0.0. Elasticsearch is running fine on `localhost:9200` (reachable and responding) and is hooked with a Logstash instance.

Logstash and Elasticsearch communicate well (tried a test with `stdout`). Also, Kibana is set to use Elasticsearch on `kibana.yml`.

The problem is with Kibana. When I launch it on `localhost:5601`, the only thing I've got is that error message.

I could'nt find anything in the logs. I've actually set a log output with `logging.dest`, and nothing strange shows up (I've even tried with `logging.verbose`).

Any idea?

Thank you.

**UPDATE:** Alright, that's was my fault; I was running ELK on a virtual machine, and trying to access Kibana from the host machine. And since `localhost:5601` was not responding on the host machine (by default, Kibana is not accessible from outside, unless you set `server.host` to a non-loopback address), I've used a redirection on an Apache instance I've got on the guest machine to get `localhost:8080/kibana` (from the host machine) to launch `localhost:5601` (on the second machine). And that's why Kibana refused to work, because it couldn't load its ressources properly.
