    check $systemctl status elasticsearch. I am guessing your elasticsearch service is not started yet.

    I guess there are many factors that need to be checked, first of all please go to the config directory of where you installed Kibana and check the kibana.yml by sudo vi kibana.yml and check the port of elastic server that Kibana tries to connect(the default is 9200).
    Here is an example of default configuration.

    After matching this configuration with your need go to the script file that you save in for Kibana service and check the the [unix] part to if it needs activate elastic service first and if you didn’t add "Required" part for Elasticserver make sure that the elastic server is up and run before running Kibana as service, you can also lunch Kibana as shell by going to the bin director of Kibana and lunching Kibana .

    Maybe The issue happened due to kibana was unable to access elasticsearch locally.

    I think that you have enabled xpack.security plugin for security purpose at elasticsearch.yml by adding a new line :

    xpack.security.enabled : true

    if so you need to uncomment the two lines on kibana.yml :

    #elasticsearch.username: "kibana"

    #elasticsearch.password: "pass"

    elasticsearch.username = "kibana_system" 
elasticsearch.password = "your-password"

    after saving the changes, restart kibana service :

    sudo sservice kibana restart
