Hi Mantas & cwperks,

I was deploying my cluster using the Ansible playbook so I suspect most of my issues are related to that. It seems that the playbook does not deal with some things well.

I had been running the playbook multiple times to apply changes while testing. I started out using BASIC auth and then later changed to OpenID.

I checked my security config: `_plugins/_security/api/securityconfig?pretty`  
and it was not correct. Was still setup using BASIC auth.

I started with a clean ENV and ran the playbook FIRST-TIME using OpenID settings and it then worked. One other thing, I was initially trying to use MULTIPLE-AUTH-BACKENDS. I wanted to fall back to the basic auth.

Once I tried without multiple, and only using OpenID it worked.
