I have installed elastic search and its plugin head but when i enter the

 **url 
"localhost:9200/_plugin/head/"**

It does not shows any thing?

And I have also install marvel/SENSE for monitoring purpose. I have installed plugin/head using

sudo elasticsearch/bin/plugin -install mobz/elasticsearch-head

BTW I am new to elastic search. So if you could tell me why it is not showing anything or have i made any mistake.

Thank in advance!

If someone tries with version 5 or else:

for Elasticsearch 5.x: plugins are not supported. Run elasticsearch-head as a standalone
for Elasticsearch 2.x – 4.x: sudo elasticsearch/bin/plugin install mobz/elasticsearch-head
for Elasticsearch 1.x: sudo elasticsearch/bin/plugin -install mobz/elasticsearch-head/1.x
for Elasticsearch 0.9: sudo elasticsearch/bin/plugin -install mobz/elasticsearch-head/0.9
