I am getting this error while running , elasticsearch , logstash and kibana via docker compose :

{"type":"error","@timestamp":"2019-10-17T12:48:31Z","tags":["warning","stats-collection"],"pid":1,"level":"error","error":{"message":"[index\_not\_found\_exception] no such index [.kibana], with { resource.type="index\_or\_alias" & resource.id=".kibana" & index\_uuid="_na_" & index=".kibana" }",

Also I see

**green open .kibana\_task\_manager** JFExqGGOQgq7sDd8chX\_NQ 1 0 2 **8** 108.9kb 108.9kb

where **deleted\_docs is increasing**.

Below is my docker-compose file :

I am getting data from logstash to elasticsearch , just that kibana is not working and I get this message " **Kibana server is not ready yet**" on kibana url.

What am I doing wrong while configuring docker compose, or what steps shall I take to make kibana running using docker-compose

@tylersmalley I think the docs getting deleted is normal for task manager. Elasticsearch considers an update a delete+insert so each time the task manager updates a task, it will cause the deleted\_docs count to increase.

From what I can see, there's 2 existing tasks which is the normal number of tasks that get registered on a fresh Kibana setup.

It seems setup is stuck on something else than task manager by looking at the stats-collection error.
