Invalid license found, requires a basic or a valid trial license

Hi,

I was tried to add a new node on my ELK cluster but i had this error from metricbeat output .

elasticsearch: http://itkvmxh01.emea.nsn-net.net:9200...
parse url... OK
connection...
parse host... OK
dns lookup... OK
addresses: 151.98.17.61
dial up... OK
TLS... WARN secure connection disabled
talk to server... ERROR Connection marked as failed because the onConnect callback failed: invalid license found, requires a basic or a valid trial license and received Open source

I used the same yum repo as the other nodes that i have on my cluster in order to install the elasticsearch.

[root@itkvmxh01 ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/elastic-beats.repo

[elasticsearch-7.x]
name=Elasticsearch repository for 7.x packages
baseurl=https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/7.x/yum
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch
enabled=1
autorefresh=1
type=rpm-md

So this node has not been added to the cluster.
Do you know what is going wrong?

Best Regards,
Thanos

Looks like you enabled an service that's not covered in the basic license.

You can check all license features here

No i din't enable something different of these that are on the Free Basic Plan.

Can you copy & paste your Elasticsearch.yml file?

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================
#
# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.
#       Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you
#       understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.
#
# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists
# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.
#
# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html
#
# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:
#
#cluster.name: my-application
cluster.name: xh-elastic-cluster-1
#
# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for the node:
#
# node.name: xh-ita-elastic-1
node.name: xh-it-elastic-2
node.data: true
node.ingest: true
node.master: true
node.max_local_storage_nodes: 1
xpack.license.self_generated.type: basic
xpack.security.enabled: false
#node.master: true
#node.data: false
#node.ingest: false
#cluster.remote.connect: false
#node.name: node-1
#
# Add custom attributes to the node:
#
#node.attr.rack: r1
#
# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------
#
# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
#
path.data: /data/elasticsearch
#
# Path to log files:
#
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch
#
# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------
#
# Lock the memory on startup:
#
#bootstrap.memory_lock: true
#
# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available
# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this
# limit.
#
# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.
#
# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------
#
# Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6):
#
network.host: 0.0.0.0
#network.bind_host: 0.0.0.0
#network.publish_host: 0.0.0.0
http.port: 9200
# transport.host: localhost
transport.host: 0.0.0.0
transport.tcp.port: 9300
#network.host: localhost
#
# Set a custom port for HTTP:
#
#http.port: 9200
#
# For more information, consult the network module documentation.
#
# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------
#
# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when new node is started:
# The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]
#
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["10.158.67.175", "10.159.166.9", "10.158.67.107", "151.98.17.60", "151.98.17.61", "135.238.239.48", "135.238.239.132"]
#
# Prevent the "split brain" by configuring the majority of nodes (total number of master-eligible nodes / 2 + 1):
#
#discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes:
#
# For more information, consult the zen discovery module documentation.
#
# ---------------------------------- Gateway -----------------------------------
#
# Block initial recovery after a full cluster restart until N nodes are started:
#
#gateway.recover_after_nodes: 3
#
# For more information, consult the gateway module documentation.
#
# ---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------
#
# Require explicit names when deleting indices:
#
#action.destructive_requires_name: true

Do we have any other possible solution on that?

Any other idea what is happening by having this error message?

What is the output if you curl licalhost:9200/ ?

[root@atdevxhv03 elasticsearch]# curl http://localhost:9200/?
