Hi, I wanted to upgrade kibana from 6.0 to 6.5 to use the APM feature. So I did and i get "kibana server is not ready yet" on my 5601 port. I thought it was because my ES was still in version 6.0 so I did upgrade it to 6.5 and now I get this error when launching ES : > ``` > [2018-11-28T10:42:50,764][INFO][o.e.p.PluginsService] [ldtHYSw]

I got it. I had some indices that were not incompatible with ElasticSearch 6.5.1. I didn't needed them so i deleted them directly in /var/lib/elasticsearch/nodes. ---
