Hi Experts,
I'm trying to add an user which is granted only for read-only right to Kibana Canvas for security purpose.
I'm using Kibana as well as Elastic Search v7.11.1 with Basic License.
Based on the instruction, I performed as below.
1.Add following line in elasticsearch.yml
`xpack.security.enabled: true`
2.Configured prompted user/pass with the following command.
`elasticsearch-setup-passwords interactive`
3.Add following line in kibana.yml
`elasticsearch.username: "kibana"`
`elasticsearch.password: ""`
However, I get error message as below when I start ES/Kibana and tries to access Kibana.
{"statusCode":503,"error":"Service Unavailable","message":"License is not available."}
Do I have to use 30-days trial license instead of basic license in order to use the security feature?

Can you post more of the Kibana log please.

Not for the native realm, no.

@warkolm
Thank you, but which logs do you need? What I did is open kibana page via browser and only get that error status codes.

The actual Kibana log, usually in `/var/log/kibana`.
