I’ve installed opendistroforelasticsearch-kibana-0.10.0-1 and used it with Amazon ES (version 6.8). I could not login to Kibana with the default username `admin` and password `admin`. Is there a different credential for version 0.10.0?

The login page shows: “An error occurred while checking your credentials, make sure you have an Elasticsearch cluster secured by Security running.”

BTW, the Amazon ES cluster doesn’t enable “Fine-grained access control”.

kibana.yml:

elasticsearch.hosts: [“[https://vpc-blahblah.us-west-2.es.amazonaws.com:443](https://vpc-blahblah.us-west-2.es.amazonaws.com:443)”]

#elasticsearch.url: [https://localhost:9200](https://localhost:9200)  
elasticsearch.ssl.verificationMode: none  
#elasticsearch.username: kibanaserver  
#elasticsearch.password: kibanaserver  
elasticsearch.requestHeadersWhitelist: [“securitytenant”,“Authorization”]

opendistro\_security.multitenancy.enabled: true  
opendistro\_security.multitenancy.tenants.preferred: [“Private”, “Global”]  
opendistro\_security.readonly\_mode.roles: [“kibana\_read\_only”]

Never mind, I’ve figured it out.  
Because the ES doesn’t enable “Fine-grained access control”, we can remove the security plugin from Kibana so we can login to it now.
