Hi,

I suggest you remove the Shield and License plugins and re-install them using this command:

cd /usr/share/elasticsearch
sudo bin/plugin -i elasticsearch/license/1.0.0 -Des.path.conf=/etc/elasticsearch
sudo bin/plugin -i elasticsearch/shield/1.3.3 -Des.path.conf=/etc/elasticsearch

See these instructions:
