hi every one, im new over here I just spend a few days - weeks yet - to learn how works ELK solution. Seems a revolucionary concept - for my at all. (i was probing "splunk", "graylog" and similar solutions long time ago). Kibana LOG trouble: License information from the X-Pack plugin could not be obtained from Elasticsearch for the [data] cluster. Recently i has changed the elasticsearch architecture - to cluster (two nodes) ... then start all my particular hell. The ELK solution has working fine few weeks.... similar trouble. i tried to retur to singular elasticsearch server - but dont works any more - the index with troubles of sincronicity (delete all of them and i recreate it again) ... license troubles... retur to old snatch shot of elasticsearch ... same troubles and kibana too. I use debian distribution to probe this kind of lab - finaly on separated machins to study the escalabillity too and another arquitecture aspets. All of them VMs. Logstash 6.5.4 Elasticsearch 6.5.4 Kibana 6.6.0 (updated today) Kibana is showing a license trouble. Feb 12 12:02:03 Kibana kibana[371]: {"type":"log","@timestamp":"2019-02-12T11:02:03Z","tags":["license","warning","xpack"],"pid":371,"message":"License information from the X-Pack plugin could not be obtained from Elasticsearch for the [data] cluster. Error: Request Timeout after 30000ms"} My configuration now - with the trouble (to try to solve it - but its the same) Logstash.yml ... xpack.monitoring.enabled: false ... elasticsearch.yml .... xpack.ml.enabled: false xpack.monitoring.enabled: false xpack.security.enabled: false xpack.watcher.enabled: false .... kibana.yml ... xpack.graph.enabled: false xpack.ml.enabled: false xpack.monitoring.enabled: false xpack.reporting.enabled: false xpack.security.enabled: false .... Any of them don't let my uninstall the x-pack module by the ELK elected for the probe. ---

if possible can you share more logs? License troubles sound like a red herring to me, I'm wondering if there's some issue connecting to the other nodes. ---

You should ideally use the same Kibana version as your Elasticsearch version. What is the output from `localhost:9200` on the two Elasticsearch nodes? ---

With the same versions and disabling x-pack - works again. Thanks ---

That does not answer my question. ---
