Kibana can't write its indices

I’m just working through the examples given and I just want a very simple install where Logstash can write and Kibana and direct users have only read access. This is more than enough for our logging use case. The problem is that Kibana cannot create its index. This ends up with a useless Kibana instance reporting “[index_not_found_exception] rewritten indices not found: .kibana, with { index_uuid=“na” & index=”.kibana" }" and indeed the .kibana index is missing. What am I doing wrong? This is on ES + Kibana 5.3.0

Config is:

readonlyrest:
    #optional
    response_if_req_forbidden: Sorry, your request is forbidden.

    access_control_rules:
    - name: Accept all requests from localhost
      hosts: [127.0.0.1]

    - name: All indices read only
      actions: ["indices:data/read/*"]
      indices: ["*"] # index aliases are taken in account!

    - name: Allow monitoring from everywhere
      actions: ["cluster:monitor/*","indices:monitor/*"]

    - name: Allow Logstash write access
      auth_key: logstash:logstash
      actions: ["cluster:monitor/main","indices:admin/types/exists","indices:data/read/*","indices:data/write/*","indices:admin/template/*","indices:admin/create"]
      indices: ["*"]

    - name: Allow Kibana server process
      auth_key: kibana:kibana
      kibana_access: rw
      indices: [".kibana",".kibana-devnull","*"]

It doesn’t work like this, kibana daemon needs to have full access to its index. Remove “kibana_access”. That rule is designed for the browsers.

Thanks for the quick response but sorry, but I still can’t get this to work and I’ve tried dozens of things. Trying based on elastic’s own ES and Kibana docker images.

added this to the elasticsearch config

readonlyrest:
    #optional
    response_if_req_forbidden: Sorry, your request is forbidden.

    access_control_rules:

      indices: ["*"]

    - name: Allow Kibana server process
      auth_key: kibana:kibana
      indices: [".kibana",".kibana-devnull","*"]

Yes but show us the logs!
Also be sure in that docker image there’s no xpack security enabled.

Sorry, was away at a meetup yesterday. Nope there is no x-pack. Here’s the Dockerfile:

FROM docker.elastic.co/kibana/kibana:5.3.0
MAINTAINER Kevin Thorpe <kevin.thorpe@p-i.net>

# remove x-pack
RUN /usr/share/kibana/bin/kibana-plugin remove x-pack

ADD kibana.yml /usr/share/kibana/config/kibana.yml

and here’s the logs now I’ve simplified to one elasticsearch and one kibana
