Installation of plugins fail

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi all,
I have problems while trying to install the any plugin (tried bigdesk,
elasticsearch head, Jetty)
This is what it gives me:

C:\Program Files\elasticsearch\bin>plugin -install lukas-vlcek/bigdesk
-> Installing lukas-vlcek/bigdesk...
Trying
https://github.com/downloads/lukas-vlcek/bigdesk/bigdesk-0.19.8.zip...
Trying https://github.com/lukas-vlcek/bigdesk/zipball/v0.19.8...
Trying https://github.com/lukas-vlcek/bigdesk/zipball/master...
Failed to install lukas-vlcek/bigdesk, reason: failed to download

Whereas, if i fire up a browser and
enter https://github.com/lukas-vlcek/bigdesk/zipball/master i can actually
download the plugin.
We want to move ES into production, and thus require a installation guide
as a part of the process.
My document cannot be complete till these commands are sorted.

I had a look @ the batch file and have seen that it needs the Java home and
ES_HOME environment variables are used, and i have verified that these
variables are set correctly.

regards,
-Parag

I think you are behind a proxy, don't you ?

Hello!

You can just download the archive and unzip it to your ES plugins directory.

Hi,
I am looking at a approach which requires least possible human intervention.
The problem with the approach of manually downloading and installing it is
that it is manual and cant be scripted completely.

Is your production under windows ?
If not, try the plugin install process on your final env and see if it works
fine there.

As Rafał suggests, I recommand to do it "manualy". That means that you can use a
command like curl to download the plugin.

Something like
curl -OL -k https://github.com/lukas-vlcek/bigdesk/zipball/master

See curl proxy options.

You can add this curl command as part of your installation scripts.

Thanks for the inputs !!
I found out that the requests are being blocked by the firewall itself as a
part of the organizational policy.
To ensure that i can download the plugin's i will have to follow the set
process to unblock it whenever the installation is done.
