Hi guys, is there any simple solution how to fix Forbidden Error while creating index pattern in Kibana? I am still getting this error when trying to create a new index pattern. ``` Error: Forbidden _construct@https://hostname/bundles/commons.bundle.js:3:1609071 Wrapper@https://hostname/bundles/commons.bundle.js:3:1608183 KFetchError@https://hostname/bundles/commons.bundle.js:3:1609714 kfetch/<@https://hostname/bundles/commons.bundle.js:3:1605400 run@https://hostname/built_assets/dlls/vendors.bundle.dll.js:92:797402 notify/<@https://hostname/built_assets/dlls/vendors.bundle.dll.js:92:797642 flush@https://hostname/built_assets/dlls/vendors.bundle.dll.js:250:1512804 ``` Thanks ---

Hi, May be you have reached high watermark disk? Elasticsearch's index is made read-only and never set back when disk watermark reached high. To unlock all indexes manually: `curl -XPUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://[YOUR_ELASTICSEARCH_ENDPOINT]:9200/_all/_settings -d '{"index.blocks.read_only_allow_delete": null}'` Try this. Else plz post detailed steps as to how you hit this error. It would be easier to debug. Thanks Rashmi ---

Hi, no, it didn't help. Even i have a lot of disk space. I created a new VM, installed ELK 7.2, configure input/output to process netflow data. Index for that was automatically created in logstash and i can see docs are increasing. Then i went to Kibana to create an index pattern. Kibana recognize it, but when i click on the last step/button to create it i got this error. ---

@thirty2 would you mind running the following using Dev Tools and providing us the response? > GET \_security/user/\_privileges ---

Getting message in gui, then Kibana is not ready yet. What esle should be configured? Thanks ---

You don't have to enabled security in Elasticsearch to be able to create index patterns in Kibana. Would you mind running the following queries in Dev Tools and replying with their responses? ```auto GET _cat/aliases GET _cat/indices GET _all/_settings ``` ---

You don't happen to be putting a reverse-proxy (nginx/apache/etc.) in-front of Kibana/ES, are you? Have you checked your Elasticsearch logs to see if any errors are being thrown? ---
