Localhost:9200/_plugin/head error

Hi,

We just followed Head plugin unable to connect to Elasticsearch 5.3 - cluster health: not connected to install head plugin by
./elasticsearch -plugin install x-pack,t when we access localhost:9200/_plugin/head with userid: elastic and passpwrd: changeme, the error messages are as follows:

{"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"illegal_argument_exception","reason":"No endpoint or operation is available at [head]"}],"type":"illegal_argument_exception","reason":"No endpoint or operation is available at [head]"},"status":400}

Any advice would be appreciated

Head can not be installed as a plugin.

Xpack is something else.

Why not just using kibana dev console?
