Hi,

is plugin broken in 0.90.2?

With version 0.90.1 I can install knapsack with:  
./bin/plugin -url [http://bit.ly/19zYGu2](http://bit.ly/19zYGu2) -install knapsack

But with version 0.90.2 and the command

./bin/plugin --url [http://bit.ly/19zYGu2](http://bit.ly/19zYGu2) --install knapsack

plugin returns an error and "Command [--url] unknown."

So, is plugin brocken? How to install knapsack with 0.90.2?

Bye,

Oliver

Try the other way around, i.e.

bin/plugin --install knapsack --url [http://bit.ly/19zYGu2](http://bit.ly/19zYGu2)

It goes on to print out the help message anyway, so probably a bug, but  
works for me if I put the install first.

Yeah. See [PluginManager fails with unknown command when passing url or verbose parameters · Issue #3245 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/3245)
