Problem installing X-pack

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I am trying to install x-pack offline. I don't know why it is failing. I put the same url in the browser and it downloaded the file.

D:\kibana-5.1.2-windows-x86\bin>kibana-plugin.bat install file:///D:/x-pack-5.1.
2.zip
Attempting to transfer from file:///D:/x-pack-5.1.2.zip
Error: ENOTFOUND
Attempting to transfer from https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/kibana-plugin
s/file:///D:/x-pack-5.1.2.zip/file:///D:/x-pack-5.1.2.zip-5.1.2.zip
Plugin installation was unsuccessful due to error "No valid url specified."

Hello,
the problem is most likely that for Kibana you only need two slashes after file:

Let me know if this works for you. I just noticed that our docs do not reflect this, so we'll change it as soon as possible.

It looks like you did not install x-pack in Elasticsearch, but only in Kibana.

Install it in Elasticsearch as well and restart Elasticsearch. The command should be almost identical. It could be that you do need three slashes for the path here
