Hi ELK Team, I set up Elastic stack in separate docker containers on my local machine. It is build based on the following Github repository: [https://github.com/deviantony/docker-elk](https://github.com/deviantony/docker-elk) below is \*\*\* Docker-compose file\*\* ```auto version: '3.7' services: # The 'setup' service runs a one-off script which initializes the # 'logstash_internal' and 'kibana_system' users inside Elasticsearch with the # values of the passwords defined in the '.env' file. # # This task is only performed during the *initial* startup of the stack. On all # subsequent runs, the service simply returns immediately, without performing # any modification to existing users. setup: build: context: setup/ args: ELASTIC_VERSION: ${ELASTIC_VERSION} init: true volumes: - setup:/state:Z environment: ELASTIC_PASSWORD: ${ELASTIC_PASSWORD:-} LOGSTASH_INTERNAL_PASSWORD: ${LOGSTASH_INTERNAL_PASSWORD:-} KIBANA_SYSTEM_PASSWORD: ${KIBANA_SYSTEM_PASSWORD:-} networks: - elk elasticsearch: build: context: elasticsearch/ args: ELASTIC_VERSION: ${ELASTIC_VERSION} volumes: - ./elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml:/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml:ro,z - elasticsearch:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data:z ports: - "9200:9200" - "9300:9300" environment: ES_JAVA_OPTS: -Xmx512m -Xms512m # Bootstrap password. # Used to initialize the keystore during the initial startup of # Elasticsearch.

But Enterprise Search within Kibana does not work. I have tried so much on this, still no solution. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/9/69ddb36b665ae330215c4d8c00b350cab341c1de.png) Below are the error logs: ```auto workspace-kibana-1 *| [2022-04-03T03:19:31.484+00:00][ERROR][plugins.enterpriseSearch] Could not perform access check to Enterprise Search: FetchError: request to http://localhost:3002/api/ent/v2/internal/client_config failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:3002* ``` Your help will be much appreciated ---
