Hello,
I am trying to install x-pack in elasticsearch trough debian 9. But I am not using Kibana as web interface, I'm using Graylog. I found something like this:
> **[HOW TO SETUP A SECURE ELASTICSEACH 5.5.1 SEVER WITH X-PACK- AMAZON EC2](https://medium.com/linux-point/how-to-setup-a-secure-elasticseach-5-5-1-sever-with-x-pack-amazon-ec2-c01224db3fb8)**
>
> Elasticsearch configuration. In this post we will go through to setup Elasticsearch 5.5.1 server, with X-PACK to secure your Elasticsearch…
But that didn't worked. There came an error when I tried to put:
bin/elasticsearch-plugin install x-pack
The error message was: **X-Pack is not available with the oss distribution; to use X-Pack features** Can someone help me with the step-by-step installation?
Best regards
Rafael

Which version of Elasticsearch are you using?

Just use the standard distribution of elasticsearch. It contains all the x-pack modules you need.

7.7.2 does not currently exist. 7.7.0 was just recently released.

If you are using the default distribution (not OSS) X-Pack is included. Security is however only included in the free basic license from version 6.8 onwards so you likely need to upgrade.

I am using the oss version.
Is it generally possible to install plugins in the oss version? It seems for me that its not possible.

X-Pack requires the default distribution and can not be installed as a plugin on the OSS version.

Yeah. Exactly what I meant:
