Visualize: "field" is a required parameter - ELK 5.5.2

Hi

I moved my elasticsearch, logstash, and kibana to a RHEL 7.4 box from a 6.9 and now I see the below errors on any of the sample dashboards. I am only using metricbeat and it's sample dashboards. An identical setup worked on RHEL 6.9. Please help!

There is a work around for the issue that you're experiencing. You can find it here:

Hi

Thank you for your reply! I don't see a Traffic Over Time visualisation but I see the same error when I use the metric beat System overview by host dashboard. I click edit and see no errors

Here is the expanded error
