Hi,
Thank you for your reponse.
`Issue Resolved.`
I have restarted the elasticsearch and kibana after giving permission of kibana group and after some time kibana service started.
Other issue was kibana UI was not loading that is because of Firefox(browser issue), when I tried in google chrome kibana was up and running.
Regards,
Swarali Vartak
