I just upgraded to Elasticsearch and Kibana 6.0.1 from 5.6.4 and I'm having trouble getting the Kibana server running. The service appears to be running, but nothing is binding to the port and I don't see any errors in the logs.
Verifying the version I have running:
root@my-server:/var/log# /usr/share/kibana/bin/kibana --version
6.0.1
Checking the service status:
root@my-server:/var/log# sudo service kibana start
root@my-server:/var/log# sudo service kibana status
● kibana.service - Kibana

Confirming that ES is up and running:
root@my-server:/var/log# curl -u elastic:"mypassword" http://my-
server:9200/
{
"name" : "vf9xM-O",
"cluster_name" : "my-server",
"cluster_uuid" : "pdwwLfCOTgehc_5B8oB-8g",
"version" : {
"number" : "6.0.1",
"build_hash" : "601be4a",
"build_date" : "2017-12-04T09:29:09.525Z",
"build_snapshot" : false,
"lucene_version" : "7.0.1",
"minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
"minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
},
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}
When I try to CURL the Kibana Node server (which should be running on 5601 as per the config):
root@my-server:/var/log# curl 'localhost:5601'
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 5601: Connection refused
Indeed when I list the open ports, I see lots of things, but nothing on 5601:
root@my-server:/var/log# netstat -ntlp | grep LISTEN

I'm not sure what else to try to troubleshoot Kibana, any ideas are really really appreciated!
