Kibana 3 and Elasticsearch 1.4 - CORS problem

Kibana 3 against ElasticSearch 1.4 throws an Connection Failed screen. The error text says to set http.cors.allow-origin, but it misses out the important http.cors.enabled: true

Working config:

$ grep cors elasticsearch-1.4.0.Beta1/config/elasticsearch.yml
http.cors.allow-origin: "/.*/"
http.cors.enabled: true

I just ran into this problem last night. And it's also good to know one other thing

This didn't work:
http.cors.allow-origin: *

But this did:
http.cors.allow-origin: "*"

Be sure to have "http.cors.enabled: true" included in your .yml file as well.

Yes. For OS X El Capitan 10 using Chrome browser.
Adding the two lines to /usr/local/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml
http.cors.allow-origin: "*"
http.cors.enabled: true
resolved the issue.
