Hello,

I installed version 5.1.2 of ELK stack and strictly following  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-discovering.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-discovering.html)

tutorial.

I successfully loaded sample data into elasticsearch and defined index patterns.

Now I am stuck at "Discovering your data" step: if I choose "ba\*" or "shake\*" index patterns at Discovery tab, it displays index data (as expected). If I choose "logstash-\*" index pattern, it says "No results found".

I tried to create "log\*" index pattern with " Index contains time-based events" unchecked, and at Discovery page I can see logstash-\* index data.  
The problem arise when I define index pattern with "Index contains time-based events" checked.

Any clues?

Thanks in advance!

Okay, found the solution:

It was not obvious (to me 🙂 and probably worth mentioning in Tutorial too.
