Trying to understand what the issue is and how to solve this.

I had an index it elasticsearch, and a index pattern in kibana based on that index.  
I had created reports based on this.

I felt on QC that somehow the data was incorrect and deleted the index and pattern in ES and Kibana.  
Ran the logstash job and got the index in ES.  
When I try to create a pattern in Kibana, it gives the above error.

Full details below.

Please help. How do I get back my index pattern in Kibana working again.

```
