The flu shot contains inactivated virus. You cannot get the flu from the flu shot.

That said, some symptoms that we associate with the flu are actually our immune system's response to it, rather than anything caused directly by the virus itself. The vaccine can trigger an immune response (albeit a much weaker one than a full infection would give), leading to symptoms like a mild fever or fatigue.
