The kibana 7.6.1 is failing and restarting. So i tried to delete all the files and reinstalling the package. Still issue persists

**`cat /etc/default/kibana`**

```auto
user="kibana"
group="kibana"
chroot="/"
chdir="/"
nice=""

# If this is set to 1, then when `stop` is called, if the process has
# not exited within a reasonable time, SIGKILL will be sent next.
# The default behavior is to simply log a message "program stop failed; still running"
KILL_ON_STOP_TIMEOUT=0

BABEL_CACHE_PATH="/var/lib/kibana/optimize/.babel_register_cache.json"
NODE_OPTIONS="-max_old_space_size=2048"

```

What operating system are you running? How are you starting Kibana? How did you install Kibana?
