X-pack installation warning

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I'm using elasticsearch and kibana (V-5.4.3)

and while installing X-Pack (V-5.4.3) on elasticsearch, i'm getting warning :

 [2017-09-22T07:13:26,151][WARN ][o.e.b.ElasticsearchUncaughtExceptionHandler] [] uncaught exception in thread [main]

Is this an issue and i have to install it again?

My X-Pack is running fine on kibana the only issue is on my elasticsearch where i'am not able to see new indexs which are being loaded in kibana.

That's pretty explanatory, we don't allow this because of security issues.

@warkolm this the reason why i'm not able to see the new index on elasticsearch ?
