Error while importing metricbeat dashboard

Hi,

I am trying to import dashboard for metricbeat offline using the command

./scripts/import_dashboards -dir /files/beats-dashboards-5.0.0/metricbeat

and I am getting the error;

-bash-4.1$ ./import_dashboards -dir /files/beats-dashboards-5.0.0/metricbeat
