Kibana Reporting Max Attempts reached (3) error

I am using bitnami ELK stack and have installed x-pack both on elasticsearch and kibana

When I am generating reports from a visualization it gives me the following error

I have following properties in kibana.yml

xpack.reporting.queue.timeout: 600000

any help will be highly appreciated. I do not see anything in elasticsearch logs.

There is no message related to pdf after the following log statement

{"type":"log","@timestamp":"2018-03-19T04:12:32Z","tags":["reporting","worker","debug"],"pid":74889,"message":"PDF: Processing PDF job"}

Hey,

could you maybe paste a bit more of the log context around that. Especially everything that comes after it. It doesn't necessarily need to have the word PDF in it, even if its relevant for reporting.

Cheers,
Tim

hey Tim,

Hi,

after syncing with some colleagues I think the actual issue is, that you are running behind a reverse proxy. If you are running behind a reverse proxy (as you do), you need to provide some addition information in the kibana.yml configuration for reporting - see docs. The actual values might depend on your actual architecture. In that case you should consult the bitnami docs or forums, on how those values must be set.

Cheers,
Tim

In case someone needs help..here is the solution

Thanks for sharing that post. That will be very helpful to guide other Bitnami users! :elasticheart:
