Lukas - it happens every time I type something in, anything in at all, but only once I've finished typing and press return. There's no Create, or Okay button or anything like that either.

EDIT: I was wondering whether Kibana has extracted correctly. I was wondering if there's a way to check.

EDIT #2: I've found this thread which shows what the 'Configure an index pattern' screen looks like for me;

> [@Create button do not appear](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/create-button-do-not-appear/25870/4):
>
> Hello, I just fresh installed ELK with the latest version via repo, but still no luck to see the create button? All files configuration is default as guide on [https://www.elastic.co](https://www.elastic.co). I do not know where i am wrong. Any one can help me?

...although in the top left under 'Index patterns' it says;

Warning No default index pattern. You must select or create one to continue.

....but then lists;

.marvel-es-1-\*

...under it.
