We just upgraded to 6.6.1 and we get a 500 error when trying to get an enrollment token. Here's the error message from the Kibana logs:

@mattapperson Can you take a look, I think that might be fixed in 6.7 buts maybe we could have simple fix for 6.6.x

[mattapperson]

This issue is fixed in 7.0, however the fix will just allow the console to output the error (this is a bug with logging). The real error is that there is an issue with SSL configurations for ES. I am still working on this issue and will report back as soon as I have more information as to the exact cause and a fix.

Just to report that I have a freshly created 7.3.1 cluster on cloud.elastic.co (AWS hosted and marketplace invoiced) and I still get this same error in developer console when trying to enroll via Kibana (or via CLI)

Any workaround how to fix it?

[rambo]

Apparently .beats index was missing or something like that, they (as in elastic cloud support) fixed it for me when they finally figured out what's wrong.
