New Basic or (temporary) Trial license not being accepted

Our trial license for commercial plug-ins expired a few weeks ago. All commercial plug-ins were either uninstalled or disabled at that time. When trying to re-start the cluster with a new configuration just now, we first tried using a Basic license key (obtained by request from the Web site), then a temporary trial license key obtained from Elastic (which would support premium features, if they were installed).

In neither instance, are we able to restart the cluster. Neither key seems to be accepted.

Below are some details of our setup.

Any suggestions?

Thank you

BTW Please format your code using </> icon as explained in this guide. It will make your post more readable.

Or use markdown style like:

It looks like your cluster is red. Please resolve the other issues with your cluster, then the license should apply without problems.
