No success installing ror for ES

I try to upgrade ror for ES 8.5.2 following the appropriate instructions.
When doing sudo bin/elasticsearch-plugin install file:///home/*****/Downloads/readonlyrest-1.45.0_es8.5.2.zip i get errors:

-> Installing file:///home/*****/Downloads/readonlyrest-1.45.0_es8.5.2.zip

If somebody knows how to resolve, any hint would be very welcome.

I’ve just checked and I was able to install ROR 1.45.0 for ES 8.5.2 on Linux with no issues.

Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/*****/Downloads/readonlyrest-1.45.0_es8.5.2.zip

this error clearly says that the plugin zip file doesn’t exist.

When I enter the wrong file name I see sth similar:

please verify if your zip file or/and its path is correct.

Sorry for the interruption.
Me stupid :frowning:

Lol don’t say that! Someone in the future will google some part of this stack trace and find the exact solution. This is good and useful!
