Error while trying to install X-Pack

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I'm getting an error while trying to install X-Pack. I'm running this as root, in the ES_HOME directory (but it's not the standard location). Elastic is running, along with Kibana on this server, and it has internet access.
Any suggestions?

[root@flow1 elasticsearch-6.2.4]# bin/elasticsearch-plugin install x-pack

It doesn't look like your machine has direct internet access. The x-pack install process downloads the plugin from our servers.
If your machine is unable to do that, you should follow the offline install process described here:

In particular, follow step 1 and the second part of step 2.
