Hi All,

I am trying to install ELK on VM with Centos.  
Problem Statement-1-I am getting error for permission /var/log/kibana : operation not permitted while trying to start service with defined user.  
2- When the kibana(sudo service kibana start) is started with 'root' user on command line it shows 'kibana started' but 'service --status-all' gives 'kibana not running' also not able to make web access for same.

Please suggest where I am missing.  
Regards,  
Prateek
