Kibana Version: 4.4

Hi,

I am new to Kibana. And was trying to develop my own plugin.

On opening my new plugin, I got this error:

Uncaught Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: kbnIndexProvider \<- kbnIndex \<- config  
[http://errors.angularjs.org/1.4.7/$injector/unpr?p0=kbnIndexProvider%20\<-%20kbnIndex%20\<-%20config](http://errors.angularjs.org/1.4.7/%24injector/unpr?p0=kbnIndexProvider%20%3C-%20kbnIndex%20%3C-%20config) ([http://localhost:5601/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:31533](http://localhost:5601/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:31533))

Does anyone has any idea on this.

I received a comment on stackoverflow saying that the issue was fixed in 5.0 release. - If that is true, then can we not fix this issue in 4.4 and would need to migrate to 5.0?

There are no plans to backport this fix to 4.4. So, yes, I would strongly recommend using 5.0.
