Kibana no longer works (6.4.0)

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hello,
We have run through incremental upgrade on our test cluster.
Everything seems to be working fine, except Kibana.
I am able to start it. It seems to connect fine and even receive data, according to log.
However I am no longer able to access the web kibana dashboard...
It is set up with TLS in place. and if I put 6.3 with the same config it works just fine.

Also my Monitoring cluster reports that kibana is aliveand kicking.

Below is my kibana config:

server.port: 5601

server.host: 127.0.0.1

elasticsearch.url: "https://servername.company.com:50000"
elasticsearch.username: SECRET_ID
elasticsearch.password: SECRET_PASSWORD

console.enabled: true
xpack.security.enabled: true
server.ssl.enabled: true
server.ssl.certificate: /etc/kibana/certs/servername.company.com.pem
server.ssl.key: /etc/kibana/certs/servername.company.com.pem

elasticsearch.ssl.certificateAuthorities: [ "/etc/kibana/certs/company-root-ca-g3.pem" ]

server.ssl.certificateAuthorities: [ "/etc/kibana/certs/company.root.pem" ]


xpack.security.encryptionKey: RANDOMLY_GENERATED_STRING_THAT_IS_VERY_LONG

my server.host used to be ::0 before and worked just fine, however with 6.4 it would not let kibana start, saying connection was refused. So i changed that to 127.0.0.1

Elasticsearch on its own works as expected still.... all hosts are alive and whatnot.

Please help T_T

Are you trying to access Kibana from localhost? If not, you'll want to set server.host to the machine's public ip.
