Unable to authenticate user [elastic] for REST request

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hello @warkolm

Since few weeks, all of sudden, getting below while I am trying to curl to one of my elastic nodes. And latest data is not getting updated in Kibana dashboards.

Elastic search version is 7.8.0.

curl --user USERNAME:PASSWORD -X GET "http://localhost:8800/?pretty"

{
"error" : {
"root_cause" : [
{
"type" : "security_exception",
"reason" : "unable to authenticate user [elastic] for REST request [/?pretty]",
"header" : {
"WWW-Authenticate" : "Basic realm="security" charset="UTF-8""
}
}
],
"type" : "security_exception",
"reason" : "unable to authenticate user [elastic] for REST request [/?pretty]",
"header" : {
"WWW-Authenticate" : "Basic realm="security" charset="UTF-8""
}
},
"status" : 401

Could you please suggest me on what should I do now?

Below is the Kibana.yml and elasticsearch.yml configurations.

kibana.yml

server.basePath: "/kibana-prod"

logging.dest: /PATH/1/log/kibana.log
logging.rotate.enabled: true
logging.quiet: true

elasticsearch.username: "USERNAME"
elasticsearch.password: "PASSWORD"

elasticsearch.yml
