**[ERROR][Elasticsearch-service] Unable to retrieve version information from Elasticsearch nodes. connect ECONNREFUSED 192.168.1.6:9200**

**[ERROR][plugins.ruleRegistry] Error: Timeout: it took more than 1200000ms**

**[ERROR][plugins.ruleRegistry] Error: Failure installing common resources shared between all indices. Timeout: it took more than 1200000ms**

I am using Elasticsearch v8 on MacOS. I keep getting this error whenever I stop Kibana (Using Ctrl+C) and restart using bin/kibana. Sometimes this has happened when Kibana is running for a long time too.

Then I'd have to delete and extract ES and Kibana once again and redo all the installation steps.  
I have not changed anything in the configuration files.  
But here are the ip information in both the files  
In Kibana.yml:

```auto
`elasticsearch.hosts: ['https://192.168.1.6:9200']`

```

In Elasticsearch.yml:

```auto
network.host: 192.168.1.1

```

Note: I have also set up an additional node using the documentation, which reflected properly on the console. But the above problem is recurring. May I know why this is happening, and how to resolve it??
