Hi there!
I think you may have mixed up your config keys for Kibana and Elasticsearch.
`xpack.security.transport` is an Elasticsearch setting and should not be in the kibana.yml config
`xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey` is a Kibana setting and should not be in the elasticsearch.yml config.
Let me know if there's any other help I can provide!

xpack.security.transport.ssl.keystore.path: /etc/elasticsearch/certs/elastic-certificates.p12

xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey : va&TD^Vxx24mNeDDCDde2P5K#srj7#C8
and these settings in elasticsearch.yml
xpack.security.enabled: true
xpack.security.transport.ssl.enabled: true
xpack.security.transport.ssl.verification_mode: certificate
xpack.security.transport.ssl.keystore.path: /etc/elasticsearch/certs/elastic-certificates.p12

I am getting below error in kibana logs.

The `xpack.security.transport.*` settings should not be in the kibana.yml file at all, just elasticsearch.yml.
It looks like you have a separate issue with your `server.host` configuration. Make sure it only includes the hostname, not the protocol or port.
