Hi, i've a problems to install [TrafficLightVisKibana6] or a official plugin on kibana plugin page "traffic" [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.9/kibana-plugins.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.9/kibana-plugins.html) .

Not recognize the plugin. I installed with a command line kibana install and in other way with git clone https url, and nothing goes well.

I read a post that installed diferent:

1. Create a new directory kibana
2. In this new directory create a new one traffic
3. In this new directory extract the git archive or execute a git clone
4. Now create a new archive that contains the directory kibana
5. You have now an archive with kibana/traffic/content\_of\_archive
6. You can now run ./kibana-plugin install file://....

I did it , but i have another error :

Attempting to transfer from file:////usr/share/kibana/Traffic/kibana-plugin-traffic-sg.zip  
Transferring 491520 bytes....................

Is it about this plugin? [https://github.com/snuids/TrafficLightVisKibana6](https://github.com/snuids/TrafficLightVisKibana6)

If yes, it doesn't seem like it's compatible with Kibana 7.9
