I have installed Elasticsearch on Windows 7 and I am working on command prompt started as "Run as Administrator" I started following the video "Getting started with Elasticsearch" on Elasticsearch tutorial web site. The video seems to be out of date w.r.t the latest version which is 2.1.1. the video shows how to install marvel. But I tried the same command but I am facing many issues: 1. There is no "-i" option anymore so I had to give "install" option. 2. I executed the command "plugin install elasticsearch/marvel/latest --verbose", but I am getting the following errors: -\> Installing elasticsearch/marvel/latest...

Can anybody help me understand and fix this issue please? ---

Probably you are running behind a proxy or so? ---

Yeah, just cause you are on Windows doesn't mean you have different commands. ---

If you read my original post, I have mentioned about setting up the proxy server. I am behind proxy server, but I mentioned the proxy server through settings. It has not helped me either. ---

I have tried setting up the proxy as mentioned on the URL you have mentioned, but I am still getting the error. This problem seems to be with downloading the .zip file through command prompt, because if I try to download (by pasting the .zip url on address bar) through the web browser, then I am able to download. Any other suggestion? . Thanks. ---

It's because your browser has the proxy setup correctly I guess. You can install the plugin manually once you have downloaded it: ```auto bin/plugin install file:path/to/plugin.zip ``` ---

I tried to install from the .zip file, but it seems there are other supporting .zip files which it tries to download from the internet and fails with the error messages for the supporting files. In this case, the error relates to missing files, **not** the error "Failed: SocketTimeoutException[connect timed out]". I am pasting the entire output below. So, this time the error seems to be that of a missing file. (I copied the license-2.1.1.zip file in the bin folder).

Please, [read the docs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/marvel/current/installing-marvel.html#offline-installation). They explicitly tell you what you need to. ---

Thank you so much dadoonet. Your instruction on installing from .zip file was correct. I was doing the mistake of not including 'file:' in my command. After I included 'file:' in the command, it started working without any error. I have now installed marvel from .zip file as instructed in the URL given by warkolm. Thank you once again to all of you work helping me 🙂 ---

I am solving the same problem. I mean installing marvel plugin2.1.1 on windows 7 without connectivity but without success. I tried different variation of path to zip file i.e. plugin install -v file:///c:\pracovni\ElasticSearch\2.1.1\plugins\license-2.1.1.zip response is: Downloading .DONE Verifying file:/c:/pracovni/ElasticSearch/2.1.1/plugins/license-2.1.1.zip checks ums if available ... NOTE: Unable to verify checksum for downloaded plugin (unable to find .sha1 or . md5 file to verify) - Plugin information: Name: license Description: Internal Elasticsearch Licensing Plugin Site: false Version: 2.1.1 JVM: true - Classname: org.elasticsearch.license.plugin.LicensePlugin - Isolated: false ERROR: c:\pracovni\ElasticSearch\2.1.1\plugins\license-2.1.1.zip\plugin-descriptor.properties Thanks for advice.

Please start your own thread, this appears to be a different problem. ---
