500 Server Error from NGINX Proxy #545

Closed srlucken closed 3 years ago

srlucken commented 3 years ago

Describe the problem

When attempting to access the Kibana URL, after entering the credentials, I would receive a "500 server error" from NGINX

What steps did you take trying to fix the issue

The root of this issue was caused by nginx getting a permission denied message when attempting to read /etc/nginx/htpasswd.users. This caused NGINX to be unable to authenticate the user. I added an extra line to the helk-nginx/Dockerfile to resolve the issue "RUN chmod 644 /etc/nginx/htpasswd.users" then restarted the container. I can now successfully authenticate to Kibana.

How could we replicate the issue

As a non-root user I followed the exact steps from the installation documentation. git clone https://github.com/Cyb3rWard0g/HELK.git cd HELK/docker/ sudo ./helk_install.sh Installed using option 4 The installation completed successfully, but I was unable to authenticate to Kibana.
