Error: Unexpected config.watch("indexPatterns:warnAboutUnsupportedTimePatterns", fn) call on unrecognized configuration setting

[darkpixel]

Kibana version:
6.0.0 x64

Elasticsearch version:
6.0.0

Server OS version:
Mint 18.1 (Based on Ubuntu 16.04)

Browser version:
Chrome 62.0.3202.89 x64

Browser OS version:
Mint 18.1 (Based on Ubuntu 16.04)

Original install method (e.g. download page, yum, from source, etc.):
Downloaded .deb packages from elastic.co

Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior:
Upgraded Elasticsearch and Kibana from 5.6ish to 6.0 on a test machine.
Both packages installed successfully.
Kibana starts up with the menu bar on the left-hand side and a blank page on the right. It doesn't matter which menu I click on, nothing happens. Error message in dev console (see below).

Tried clearing cache, tried alternate browser (Firefox), no change.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open http://127.0.0.1:5601/ and the issue occurs

Errors in browser console (if relevant):

commons.bundle.js?v=15533:38 Error: Unexpected `config.watch("indexPatterns:warnAboutUnsupportedTimePatterns", fn)` call on unrecognized configuration setting "indexPatterns:warnAboutUnsupportedTimePatterns".
Setting an initial value via `config.set("indexPatterns:warnAboutUnsupportedTimePatterns", value)` before binding
any custom setting configuration watchers for "indexPatterns:warnAboutUnsupportedTimePatterns" may fix this issue.

@spalger, any ideas on this?

@darkpixel do you have any plugins installed? Maybe a proxy between Kibana and the browser? If you visit view-source:127.0.0.1:5601/app/kibana in Chrome do you see indexPatterns:warnAboutUnsupportedTimePatterns in a mess of HTML escaped quotes like this?:

The default settings are responsible for telling the UI which config settings are valid, and this specific setting is defined by Kibana in src/core_plugins/kibana/ui_setting_defaults.js, do you see the setting in there?

I think it was related to issue #13685.
The .kibana index was locked (as well as a few other indices). Since it was a test machine cluster I ended up blowing stuff away to get them to unlock. After I did that, Kibana started working properly.

There hasn't been active discussion on this issue for quite awhile. We're doing a cleaning of our backlog. If you feel this closure is in error please feel free to reopen.
