When trying to set up dashboards for winlogbeat i get "Failed to import dashboard"

The error doesnt come if i never change the password for the users.  
So if i try with default "elastic" and "changeme" it works.

But after i have done  
`docker-compose exec -T elasticsearch bin/elasticsearch-setup-passwords auto --batch`

But after that it gives me 403 error.

Using the docker-compose from [https://github.com/deviantony/docker-elk](https://github.com/deviantony/docker-elk)
