I tried to find solution but i don’t see any concrete information . We are using Kibana with Xpack enabled and i don’t see this kind of issue there . Please help me .

Hello @Johnny ,

yes but i don’t remember the solution now. May be sharing your Kibana.yml and elasticsearch.yml files can help me in identifying the issue.
