Reindex returns "Content-Type" exception

Hi!

I'm trying to move my data from our old server to our new one through reindexing. This is the command I'm using in the Kibana console from the new server:

POST _reindex
{
  "source": {
    "remote":  {
      "host": "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5601"
    },
    "index": "kpi_execution_time",
    "query": {
      "match_all": {}
    }
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "kpi_execution_time"
  }
}

However, I immediately recieve this error in response, and I have not been able to find anyone with a similar error:

{
  "error": {
    "root_cause": [
      {
        "type": "exception",
        "reason": "Response didn't include Content-Type: body=<script>var hashRoute = '/app/kibana';\nvar defaultRoute = '/app/kibana';\n\nvar hash = window.location.hash;\nif (hash.length) {\n  window.location = hashRoute + hash;\n} else {\n  window.location = defaultRoute;\n}</script>"
      }
    ],
    "type": "exception",
    "reason": "Response didn't include Content-Type: body=<script>var hashRoute = '/app/kibana';\nvar defaultRoute = '/app/kibana';\n\nvar hash = window.location.hash;\nif (hash.length) {\n  window.location = hashRoute + hash;\n} else {\n  window.location = defaultRoute;\n}</script>"
  },
  "status": 500
}

What could be the cause of this? Thank you!

The port to use is 9200 not 5601
