Hi All,

I created an new installation of Elk Stack 6.5  
I created a Test Apache Server to ship logs to Logstash, but when i try to configure the index for this, it seems that I am unable to do so as i cannot see the indexs within Kibana. I have restarted the elastic / log stash and kibana services on each servers i also restarted the kibana server itself.

Do you have any supporting logs ? Is there a proxy in between ? More info would help .

This is running on a GCP platform. No proxy running between them.
