问题描述：

CentOS7.9.2009环境，以root管理员用户启动kibana7.11.1程序报如下错误：

Kibana should not be run as root.  Use --allow-root to continue.

[root@elasticsearch bin]# whoami
root
[root@elasticsearch bin]# pwd
/usr/local/kibana-7.11.1-linux-x86_64/bin
[root@elasticsearch bin]# ./kibana
Kibana should not be run as root.  Use --allow-root to continue.
[root@elasticsearch bin]# 

原因分析：

kibana不支持以root用户进行启动

解决方案：

方案一：

如果是要用root用户启动 就在后面加 --allow-root。

[root@elasticsearch bin]# ./kibana --allow-root &
