nginx 403 denied on Kibana (using ELK), fresh centos 6.6 install

$

Hey team,

I'm in the process of configuring a new Centos 6.6 fresh install and setting up the ELK stack. I've gone through most of the steps word-for-word on the following documentation, with a few variations here and there: http://www.networkassassin.com/elk-for-network-operations/

However when attempting to browse to my server on http://hostname/Kibana I am getting a 403 forbidden. I can see the nginx index page on just the hostname without issue via port 80.

I used chmod 755 /usr/share/nginx/html/kibana on the directory to grant what I assume was proper permissions levels but I still can't hit it. I don't know if it matters, but I've disabled iptables on this machine entirely. Here is a permissions output on this directory (I also gave full access to the index.html file in the Kibana directory as well): http://i.imgur.com/007bSiy.png

Any help is appreciated as when it comes to Linux I am not a whiz with web servers (first time using nginx, I'm used to IIS in the windows world) and in the Linux world Ubuntu Landscape and Samba shares configuration/maintenance are my only experience.

I assume the fix is woefully simple. Thanks for the help, I look forward to learning from this experience.

EDIT: I rebooted and am now getting a nginx 404 index page instead, though nothing else has changed.
