Error Marvel plugin Elastic

Question

I'm not able to access marvel in my browser.

http://localhost:9200/_plugins/marvel/ returns

{"error": "ElasticsearchIllegalArgumentException[No feature for name [marvel]]","status": 400} 

I have installed elastic search 1.7.1 and its up and running running at http://localhost:9200/

I'm running on a window 2008R2 server with chrome and java 1.7.0_79

I did (and tried) the following things:

• I installed the marvel plugin marvel (marvel-latest.zip). The folder marvel folder is created in the plugins folder
• The log shows the plugin is started ([INFO ][plugins ] [MY_01_dev] loaded [marvel], sites [marvel])
• tried giving in teh path to the index page manually ( http://localhost:9200/_plugins/marvel/_site/kibana/index.html#/dashboard )
• Changed the config with: marvel.agent.exporter.es.hosts: localhost:9200

No luck so far, all commands with cURL seems to work, but as much as I'm fond of command lines, my colleagues aren't, so i realy would like to get the plugin up and running

Answer 1

The url is not with _plugins , but with _plugin (singular):

http://localhost:9200/_plugin/marvel/kibana/index.html#/dashboard/file/marvel.overview.json

Answer 2

Marvel and sense plugin should be installed to Kibana and then access it using marvel agent on elastic node. https://stackoverflow.com/a/33732567/1013528
