I'M unable to start Kibana. The Main pages display "Login Is currently Disable. Administrator should consult kibana log".
The setup is installed with X-pack.
I have disable the security in Elasticsearch.yml and Kibana.yml. Below is my yml file.
**elasticsearch.yml under /etc/elasticsearch**
\< cluster.name: elasticsearch
node.name: POCdata-0
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch
path.data: /datadisks/disk1/elasticsearch/data
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["POCdata-0:9300","POCdata-1:9300","POCdata-2:9300"]
node.master: true
node.data: true
discovery.zen.minimum\_master\_nodes: 2
network.host: [_site_, _local_]
node.max\_local\_storage\_nodes: 1
bootstrap.memory\_lock: true
xpack.security.enabled: false /\>
and when I run curl '[http://localhost:9200/](http://localhost:9200/)', it gives response status as 401, even after restarting the service ( sudo service elasticsearch restart)
{"error":{"root\_cause":[{"type":"security\_exception","reason":"missing authentication token for REST request [/]","header":{"WWW-Authenticate":"Basic realm="security" charset="UTF-8""}}],"type":"security\_exception","reason":"missing authentication token for REST request [/]","header":{"WWW-Authenticate":"Basic realm="security" charset="UTF-8""}},"status":401}
Do I need to disable security, in any other place?

Kibana.yml under /etc/kibana
elasticsearch.url: "[http://POCdata-0:9200](http://POCdata-0:9200)"

And when I run the cmd - curl -u kibana:'\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*_' '[http://10.0.0.5:5601](http://10.0.0.5:5601)'
out put is -
/_ Script tag.
var hashRoute = '/app/kibana';
var defaultRoute = '/app/kibana';
var hash = window.location.hash;
if (hash.length) {
window.location = hashRoute + hash;
} else {
Not sure where it is trying to
window.location = defaultRoute;
}

Yes. I did.
elasticsearch.yml
node.name: POCdata-0
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch
path.data: /datadisks/disk1/elasticsearch/data
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["POCdata-0:9300","POCdata-1:9300","POCdata-2:9300"]
node.master: true
node.data: true
discovery.zen.minimum\_master\_nodes: 2
network.host: [site, local]
node.max\_local\_storage\_nodes: 1
bootstrap.memory\_lock: true
xpack.security.enabled: false

What gives:
```
curl POCdata-0:9200
curl POCdata-1:9200
curl POCdata-2:9200
```
