Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

I have a simple custom realm jar which I zipped and the plugin-descriptor.properties file as mentioned in https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/plugin-authors.html

When I try to do the install with C:\Program Files\elasticsearch-6.3.2\bin> .\elasticsearch-plugin install file:///S:/Sourcecode/ElasticSearch/elastics earch/CustomPlugins/distribution/src/resources/plugin/elasticsearch-main/plugins/x-pack/extensions/auth-6.3.2.0.zip it fails with the below error

I re-organized my packaging, zipped it with maven and made sure the zip is only one root folder with the jar and property files and this helped resolve the issue.
