Let’s consider one of the examples of installing the Kibana component, which is responsible for rendering in Elasticsearch.
Install kibana:
sudo yum install kibana -y
Open the settings file and edit lines:
sudo vi /etc/kibana/kibana.yml
... server.port: 5601 ... server.host: "localhost" ... server.basePath: "/elk7int" ...
Dont start Kibana now
Install nginx
yum install nginx -y
If you see error: nginx not found, run “yum install epel-release -y” and run install nginx.
Set login “elk7int” and password for nginx access:
echo "elk7int:`openssl passwd -apr1`" | sudo tee -a /etc/nginx/htpasswd.users
Open nginx config file:
vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
Disable IPv6 if you don’t use it, comment line “listen [::]:80…”. And paste new section “location /elk7int” in nginx config:
... # Load modular configuration files from the /etc/nginx/conf.d directory. # See http://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#include # for more information. include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf; server { listen 80 default_server; # listen [::]:80 default_server; server_name elk7int; root /usr/share/nginx/html; # Load configuration files for the default server block. include /etc/nginx/default.d/*.conf; location /elk7int { auth_basic "Restricted Access"; auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/htpasswd.users; rewrite ^/elk7int/(.*) /$1 break; proxy_ignore_client_abort on; proxy_pass http://localhost:5601/; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; } location / { } error_page 404 /404.html; location = /40x.html { } error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html; location = /50x.html { } }
if you want to completely close access to the entire server, move the two lines that starts with “auth_basic” above “location /elk7int”
Set connection settings for nginx
sudo setsebool httpd_can_network_connect 1 -P
Open firewall for nginx access:
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=http
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
Start nginx and kibana
sudo systemctl start nginx
sudo systemctl enable nginx
sudo systemctl start kibana
sudo systemctl enable kibana
Open kibana in browser: http://[yourserver.ip]/elk7int
