Hello,

I have created a cluster ELK for my company on centos 7 using last version ELK 7 (1 logstash, 1 elasticsearch master, 1 elasticsearch indexer, and 1 kibana).  
The purpose is to make ELK cluster up and to start XPACK trial period before purchasing.

The problem is when starting kibana, i get this error in journal  
Elasticsearch cluster did not respond with license information.","prevState":"yellow","prevMsg":"Waiting for Elasticsearch"}

result of: curl -uelastic -XGET "[http://localhost:9200/\_xpack?pretty](http://localhost:9200/_xpack?pretty)"
