Is there any other location where the file should be in the latest version? Maybe this option got disabled for some reason?\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/elastic/kibana/issues/comments/162007754","html_url":"https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/5567#issuecomment-162007754","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/elastic/kibana/issues/5567","id":162007754,"user":{"login":"rashidkpc","id":1250387,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1250387?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc","html_url":"https://github.com/rashidkpc","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rashidkpc/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-12-04T16:12:17Z","updated_at":"2015-12-04T16:12:17Z","body":"`.htpasswd` is not supported, it was an undocumented side effect in earlier versions, you may want to look into setting up a reverse proxy."}}
