I have some troubles with my indexes, so i wanted to install a plugin named Kopf. So i downloaded the zip file from GIT and placed it on the server. Next thing i do is: _[root@havok elasticsearch]# bin/plugin -install lmenezes/elasticsearch-kopf -u file:///root/elasticsearch-kopf-master.zip_ _-\> Installing lmenezes/elasticsearch-kopf..._ _Trying file:/root/elasticsearch-kopf-master.zip..._ _Downloading ....................DONE_ _Installed lmenezes/elasticsearch-kopf into /usr/share/elasticsearch/plugins/kopf_ _Identified as a \_site plugin, moving to \_site structure ..._ _[root@havok elasticsearch]#_ It has installed it in /usr/share/elasticsearch/plugins/kopf and it has included a \_site folder. But when i go to [http://localhost:9200/\_plugin/kopf](http://localhost:9200/_plugin/kopf) really nothing is happening. Also replaced localhost with the IP of the server, but still nothing. Anyone an idea what i did wrong? ## -- Please update your bookmarks!

Hi, After Install Kopf..You restarted you ES or not? When you restart ES you can see in ES log that plugin is loaded or not. Thanks, Sumit ---
