Please share your suggestions ....

Hi Chandra,

Is there a proxy or anything that could be blocking the plugin installer from getting to it? The easiest thing I can suggest is to see if you can download the x-pack.zip file from that machine and do the offline install.

wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/packs/x-pack/x-pack-5.5.0.zip

bin/elasticsearch-plugin install file:///<path of your zip file>/x-pack-5.5.0.zip

Note that the zip file URL above is for the combined X-Pack zip which can be used to install X-Pack on Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana.

Please let us know if that works OK.

Regards,
Lee
