Could you tell me some more about which version of kibana are you using, how did you install, what system, did it work previously ? Did you edit any configuration files ?

thanks

I was using kibana 4.0.0 .
I downloaded the zip file , extracted it and ran ./kibana
I installed on ubuntu 16.04
I installed it for first time
I haven't edited the config file

pls try never version of kibana, if you can, go with the latest (5.5)

I was working with spring and elastic search
I think the maven dependency for spring-elasticsearch now supports lower versions of ES, so that I was using ES 2.4.5 and hence used kibana 4.0.0

If you look at the support matrix, Elasticsearch 2.4.5 is compatible with Kibana 4.6.4.
