Shingles are caused by the chicken pox virus. If you had chicken pox as a child, you have the potential to have shingles later in life.

We are not sure what causes the virus to go active again after decades but there is likely some initiating trigger. The flu shot would not cause shingles, however, each individual's response to drugs and medications can be different. Ask your doctor if, in your case, the immune response to the flu shot could have caused your outbreak of shingles. It is doubtful, but potentially not impossible. If that were the initiating event, it would not be that you "caught" shingles from the vaccine, it would be that the immune response to the vaccine might have triggered the chicken pox virus to reactivate and create shingles.
