Hi Adnan, You caught a small typo in on our download page! The command for installing the licensing plugin should be: ``` bin/plugin -i elasticsearch/license/latest ``` Please give that a try, and let me know if you have any issues. We updated the download page to have the correct command as well. ---

Congratulations! One question here, what's the license of Watcher plugin, Apache License or others? ---
