I am trying to install the marvel sense plugin for ES and Kibana on windows. I have ES version 2.2.0 and Kibana version 4.4.0

Here is what i tried to do

For ES

plugin install license

i get

-> Installing license...
Trying https://download.elastic.co/elasticsearch/release/org/elasticsearch/plugi
n/license/2.2.0/license-2.2.0.zip ...
ERROR: failed to download out of all possible locations..., use --verbose to get
 detailed information

i also tried

plugin install marvel-agent

but i get

-> Installing marvel-agent...
Trying https://download.elastic.co/elasticsearch/release/org/elasticsearch/plugi
n/marvel-agent/2.2.0/marvel-agent-2.2.0.zip ...
ERROR: failed to download out of all possible locations..., use --verbose to get
 detailed information

For Kibana, i knew it wasn't going to work but still

i tried

plugin --install elasticsearch/marvel/latest

and i get

Installing marvel
Attempting to transfer from https://download.elastic.co/elasticsearch/marvel/mar
vel-latest.tar.gz
Error: Client request error: connect ETIMEDOUT
Plugin installation was unsuccessful due to error "Client request error: connect
 ETIMEDOUT"

has anyone faced similar issues? Any help would be appreciated. I did not face these problems for ES 2.1 and Kibana 4.3

I downloaded everything from the ES website.

Edit

The offline installation as mentioned on

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/marvel/current/installing-marvel.html#offline-installation

works for ES but not for Kibana. It complains of an invalid url.

For each of your failures in which it recommends using --verbose, upon doing so you should see FileNotFoundException for the URL from which it attempts to download.

However, I just now installed Marvel for Elasticsearch 2.2.0 on a Windows machine, using the same command as you:

...\elasticsearch-2.2.0\bin>plugin install license

As you can see, the URL it attempts to use matches yours, so the package should be available.

-> Installing license...

Installed license into C:\Elasticsearch\elasticsearch-2.2.0\plugins\license

Are you issuing the command from \bin?

This command doesn't seem to work well behind a proxy and the usual http_proxy environment variable doesn't seem to take here.

According to this link, there are parameters you can set to specify proxy settings, but the command there is setup for marvel 1.x. The command below worked for me:

./bin/plugin -DproxyPort=port_number -DproxyHost=hostname install license

More information can also be found in the elasticsearch documentation here
