Hello, I just did an upgrade from Kibana 7.3 to 7.6. After installing with the RPM and using the same kibana.yml file I had before, I tried to start the service and after 3 restarts I got the following error
journalctl -fu kibana.service

I've been looking to the Fatal Error but can't find anything that helps.
Thanks in advance.

It looks like you may need to reset the task manager index. You can do this by executing this curl against your Elasticsearch cluster: `curl http://myelasticsearch.com:9200/.kibana_task_manager -XDELETE`

Thanks josh, I already did this on my two elasticsearch nodes and I am still having the same problem
I don't even have a kibana\_task\_manager any more:
