I want to try 6.7 branch but kibana stucks warning :" The task maps\_telemetry "Maps-maps\_telemetry" is not cancellable."

```

That certainly seems like a bug. Are you seeing that by simply starting Kibana, or did you change something that resulted in that state?

I checked out to 6.7 and used 'yarn start' to start kibana in development mode. git diff show no change but I have tested some other branch before that.

Sorry, I didn't mean changes to the source code, but changes to tasks. As in, have you added any tasks to Kibana? It sounds like maybe no, that you just cloned and started in dev mode and started seeing this error.

It looks like this is something of a known issue, see here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/30564](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/30564)

That issue makes it sound like it's safe to ignore that warning, the only downside is that, from the sound of it, Kibana would stop collecting telemetry data about usage of the new Maps application.
