We have a setup in such a way that Elasticsearch is running behind Apache2 , (the url looks something like this :- [https://myelk/analytics/](https://myelk/analytics/) ) and kibana on another machine . I have changed the kibana.yml file in such way that  
"elasticsearch.url:[https://myelk/analytics/](https://myelk/analytics/)"  
"elasticsearch.ssl.verify: false" (since this is a test system , we dont want the certificate to be validated for the time being).

Kibana is unable to revive the connection and the request is getting timed out .

Please let me know the ways out of this problem ?

hi @nandu_mahesh

can you submit requests to ES from the box that is hosting Kibana?
