Try to connect to remote es cluster node on local Kibana, have kibana.yml config inside our internal pipeline but cannot connect to our internal staging cluster nodes, we can connect kibana through link and username and password with certification. Note that in docker-compose we do not have elastic setup since we are connecting to a remote cluster not a local one so any resources online suggesting using localhost and setup everything will not work.


server.name:

server.host: "0"

logging.root.level: error

elasticsearch.hosts: [ "our url" ]

elasticsearch.username:

elasticsearch.password: 

elasticsearch.ssl.certificateAuthorities: ./certs/elastic/xxx.pem

elasticsearch.ssl.certificate: ./certs/elastic/xxx.key

elasticsearch.ssl.key: ./certs/elastic/xxx.crt

elasticsearch.ssl.alwaysPresentCertificate: true

I have completely zero knowledge on what is an elastic and kibana, please provide exact detail on how to solve this.

Welcome to our community! :smiley:

Can you share your Kibana config file?

4

updated please check.

I think that's the issue, because your log shows;

Is that the correct URL to Elasticsearch? Is that what's in your config?

6

I'm running using docker and my docker compose component is like

kibana:
   build:
      dockerfile: Dockerfile.kibana-ui
      context: .
    ports:
      - 5601:5601
   env_file:
      - ./kibana-staged.yml

I can make sure that url return a valid response and the only thing is that I'm not sure whether should I adding node in the cluster url.

7

It might be worth sharing your compose file please.

9

This is my docker-compose file

10

So my question is that if I want to use the kibana.yml and test it locally how should I include in my dockerfile, do I have to put it like

environment:
      SERVER_NAME: "spark-repo_kibana"
      SERVER_HOST: '"0"'
      ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS: 
      ELASTICSEARCH_USERNAME:
      ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD:

this, can I not include it by using the yaml file only?

11

I was not sure files like kibana.yml and elasticsearch.yml, how can we corresponding it with the one in docker-compose?
