Hi, I have basic license and I don't see security section in settings, why? I have default installation of ELK stack v7.6.2.
How can I enable all options to which I have access/icense, to just see them?

OK I found elasticsearch option for enable security xpack.security.enabled: true
but I am goting:
Apr 12 11:07:12 ubuntu kibana[31462]: {"type":"log","@timestamp":"2020-04-12T11:07:12Z","tags":["warning","plugins","licensing"],"pid":31462,"message":"License information could not be obtained from Elasticsearch due to [security_exception] missing authentication credentials for REST request [/_xpack], with { header={ WWW-Authenticate=\"Basic realm=\\\"security\\\" charset=\\\"UTF-8\\\"\" } } :: {\"path\":\"/_xpack\",\"statusCode\":401,\"response\":\"{\\\"error\\\":{\\\"root_cause\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"security_exception\\\",\\\"reason\\\":\\\"missing authentication credentials for REST request [/_xpack]\\\",\\\"header\\\":{\\\"WWW-Authenticate\\\":\\\"Basic realm=\\\\\\\"security\\\\\\\" charset=\\\\\\\"UTF-8\\\\\\\"\\\"}}],\\\"type\\\":\\\"security_exception\\\",\\\"reason\\\":\\\"missing authentication credentials for REST request [/_xpack]\\\",\\\"header\\\":{\\\"WWW-Authenticate\\\":\\\"Basic realm=\\\\\\\"security\\\\\\\" charset=\\\\\\\"UTF-8\\\\\\\"\\\"}},\\\"status\\\":401}\",\"wwwAuthenticateDirective\":\"Basic realm=\\\"security\\\" charset=\\\"UTF-8\\\"\"} error"}
I have basic license.
My config doesn't have anything more than path to data and logs and security enabled. Is somewhere tutorial what I should configure? I just wanted have this security menu and HTTPS on Kibana soon too if will be this pissible...
The default distribution of Elasticsearch includes all of X-Pack, but the default license is "basic".
You can activate a free trial of the commercial features via Kibana (Management -> License)
The basic license gives you access to many features including some security features like TLS, file based authentication, role based access. If you don't see these - may be It sounds like the Basic license may not have been applied. Can you share the output of:
curl -XGET "localhost:9200/_xpack/license" -u elastic
I included the -u elastic
on the assumption that security is still enabled.
Thanks

I don't want trial, just use free basic license for my small private project
# curl -XGET "localhost:9200/_xpack/license" -u elastic
Enter host password for user 'elastic':
I dont know password for elastic user, never set such.
# curl -XGET "localhost:9200/_xpack/license"
{
"license" : {
"status" : "active",
"uid" : "[…]",
"type" : "basic",
"issue_date" : "2020-04-07T[…]Z",
"issue_date_in_millis" : […],
"max_nodes" : 1000,
"issued_to" : "elasticsearch",
"issuer" : "elasticsearch",
"start_date_in_millis" : -1
}
}
I also before had another installation and there was no security menu too. In both cases I used Ubuntu and .deb packages from official repository.
