Can you see if that the port is open?

`lsof -i :5601`

What distro are you on and how did you install Kibana?

Hi  
How do I edit the .yml file, and how do I know which modifications to do?  
The kibana is not running on the laptop. There are several errors when I run the programs.  
How do I access from the browser? by doing [http://localhost](http://localhost)?
