Installed X-Pack but can't access Machine Learning or Watch

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Installed X-Pack but can't access Machine Learning or Watch on MAC 6.x version. However when I try to
access these via the Kibana UI I get an error indicating I don't have access to this component contact
your administrator.

In installed X-Pack 6.x on all three components, Logstash, Elastic Search and Kibana

What is the type you have in the response from http://localhost:9200/_xpack/license

While the trial license allows access to Machine Learning and Watcher it will be downgraded to a basic license after 30 days. If you want to reset, you can re-install Elasticsearch or reach out to https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions

I get this below when I run : http://localhost:9200/_xpack/license

{
"license" : {
"status" : "active",
"uid" : "45fdd94e-162d-42c2-b5ce-779f893aa908",
"type" : "trial",
"issue_date" : "2017-10-12T16:40:33.620Z",
"issue_date_in_millis" : 1507826433620,
"expiry_date" : "2017-11-11T16:40:33.620Z",
"expiry_date_in_millis" : 1510418433620,
"max_nodes" : 1000,
"issued_to" : "elasticsearch",
"issuer" : "elasticsearch",
"start_date_in_millis" : -1
}

Do you have any logs which give more details? I installed the released all of Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana on 6-0-0 RC2 without any hitches and when installed I have a 30 day trial license to access all the features.

Thanks

The only think I have is the start up logs of Kibana

Are you using the Elastic super user to login ? If not use that and let us know if you still encounter the issue you stated. You might have to restart ES and Kibana as well, before you login and let us know.

Thanks
