Kibana 4 timestamp - kibana-4

When trying to do the simplest graph of the amount of logs in kibana4 I get this (screenshot of my kibana window): (clickable)
To be more clear: the x-axis gives me _all, and then some way down #timestamp which, if I hover over it, gives me the correct timestamp that I actually need
The timestamps won't appear properly, whatever I do.
I also tried modifying the X-axis by doing the subaggregation->terms->#timestamp/time/time.raw. These all didn't work for me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, since I am new to Kibana4

To get a time series chart in kibana 4, your X axis needs to be a Date Histogram on your #timestamp field.

Kibana Visualization Separating X-Axis Values I Want Grouped

I have data being written to Elasticsearch that I wanted to visualize in Kibana, but I'm having problems with the visualization.
I have a process writing when it starts {ProcessStartTime} and when it stops {ProcessStopTime}
I'm trying to create what I thought was a simple visualization:
A vertical bar chart with Count as the Y-Axis and {ProcessStartTime} and {ProcessStopTime} as bars on the X-Axis.
The problem is, instead of count of 480 for the {ProcessStartTime} as one vertical bar and a count for 389 for {ProcessStopTime} as another vertical bar. It separates out all unique {ProcessStartTime} entires so I have a count of 1 with a thousand vertical bars. Moreover, I appears I cannot add more than one term, just sub categories, so {ProcessStopTime} isn't on the bar chart at all. So I decided to try the Filter aggregation, which allowed me to get a count of all entries with "ProcessStartTime" in the body. However, I cannot add "ProcessStopTime" as another filter as those don't coexist.
My current solution is to have two charts, using the Filter aggregation, then compare the charts side-by-side to compare the counts. For obvious reasons, I'd like those combined, but I just don't see how to have two X-Axis buckets, or to group the data as it needs to be.
I am missing something obvious?
I might get wrong what you are trying to do and I can't comment on your question to ask for details, but here are a few things that you can do:
Get all entries regardless of their content (empty search query). Keep the Y-axis metrics for Aggregation-Count.
After that you can set a bucket for the X-axis with Filters aggregation, and use 2 filters.
Filter 1: ProcessStartTime: *
Filter 2: ProcessStopTime: *
This setup should give you 2 bars with the count of records that have the given attributes.
The other option is to make a new attribute, for example 'event', and give this attribute the values 'ProcessStartTime' and 'ProcessStopTime', and make a Terms aggregation bucket setup on event.keyword.
I hope this helps.

Creating Gantt Chart in SSRS 2015 and Data Will Not Display

I have the following result set giving me a specific status of an item . I need to build a SSRS 2015 Gantt chart to represent this data. I am having difficulty getting the data to display.
Result Set: StatusDate,Status,BegDate,EndDate, StatusDays
In the chart, I want the category to be on monthly intervals of the range provided (BegDate – EndDate) and the series to be each DAY in the range provided (BegDate – EndDate).
The bars should represent the item being Up or Down with “Up” being Green and “Down” being black for each day (x-axis) of each month (y-axis).
Hoped for Results
The current preview shows the X & Y axis' correctly, but does not show any "bars" to represent the data.
This is my first chart using SSRS and I am quite lost. Does anyone know where I can get a true tutorial on Range Bar Charts for SSRS 2015 or how I might overcome this “data Display” challenge I am stuck on? I appreciate any direction / guidance offered.
This issue was ultimately resolved by #AlanSchofield through another (and probably more clear) question, found here.
After choosing the correct chart, setting the correct properties, and determining the correct values I was able to get the chart I needed, but the behavior was still off. It would not show the a status more than once.
To fix this, and simply put, I needed to sort my data using Dense_Rank and then add the new "sort" column to my Series Group in the Chart properties. Worked like a charm!
Also got some useful guidelines on this blog post.

No results displayed because all values equal 0 - Kibana

I am on kibana 5 and I have pie chart visualization, it says "No results displayed because all values equal 0".
On discover tab everything is fine and ChannelID field is searchable and aggregatable.
Any ideas?
Screens:
kibana
kibana2
No results displayed because all values equal 0
means that the documents were found but the metric calculates 0 for every slice in your pie chart (probably sum of fields that are all 0). This cannot be displayed. If the values are 0 pie can't be drawn, there could be certain reasons.
Make sure you've set your aggregation correctly.
Make sure your metric is correct (by default it's count
which should work)
Make sure the time range which is located in the top right corner is set so you get
some results back (by default its last 15 minutes/give it a change)
You might want to have a look at this ticket. Hope it helps!

In kibana, how to modify output text colour in metric visualization by condition

I'm using kibana 4, i need metric visualization which should provide result text in red color if it not meet my condition.
Example: if lastest update of log is not current date, it should show the date in Red color. Is it possible to add colour attribute with condition?
Kibana doesn't support this functionality out-of-the-box. Instead, you'll need to write your own visualization (plugin). You can get an idea of how to do this by looking at the built-in plugins. Also have a look at the kibana project wiki. (Please note that some of it is outdated.)
However, I have written a visualization for a very similar case. Have a look, I am pretty sure this will meet your needs.

d3.js calendar view - colours + custom date

I have a few questions regarding his calendar view of mine
http://bl.ocks.org/mhska/5333055
data ranges from 1 to 4317 so the colours are not very "evenly" distributed. is there any way to improve it? (i mean basically everything below 100 is just one red colour)
is there a way to change the date format when you hover over the field from yyy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yyyy?
how could one change the colour of fields with no data? (generally this means weekends)
at the moment the fileds with no data and with most data (over 1000) are of the same colour.
thanks a bunch.
You can change the date format that is displayed by adapting the line
date = d3.time.format("%Y-%m-%d")
More information on the specifiers can be found in the documentation.
For changing the colour, you need to provide a different function for mapping values to colours. It looks like you're currently mapping your input values to only 40 output colours.
.range(d3.range([40]))
Increasing this number might be a good starting point. Note that you can provide an arbitrary function, in particular you could handle missing values separately in it.
