Tonight I finally got my first preview of a working Kibana 3.
I tried running up a Vagrant box using the new Kibana 3 Chef cookbook from Lusis
The issue with this was I forwarded port 80 in VirtualBox to 8080 on my Host. I’m not sure whether Nginx or the Angular code in Kibana was dropping the port, but I could not list the _aliases route to proxied Elasticsearch because the port was dropping.
To get it to work I was forced to proxy Elasticsearch from my host on port 80.
It was a hack job, but gave me the preview I needed. Kibana 3 looks awesome, so I will now move it into production!
