How to install license shield

[tommoholmes10]

I want to update my shield because time it's expiry
when I run
curl -XPUT -u admin 'http://localhost:9200/_licenses' -d @license.json
I have message like this
{"error":"ElasticsearchParseException[Failed to derive xcontent from (offset=0, length=0): []]","status":400}

You should really chat to the Elastic support team about this, because assistance for installing licensed plugins is covered with your subscription :)

I'll see if any Shield devs can assist though.

Okee thanks

I've asked someone from the Shield team to drop in, however I would encourage you to contact the Support team ASAP to get this resolved, especially if your license is expired.

@tommoholmes10 is your license file empty? I was able to reproduce the exception you got with an empty license file, which is to be expected.

It looks like you have also raised this on our forums - https://discuss.elastic.co/t/license-shield/27493/3

I'll close this as Github is for bugs or feature requests, not support.
