I first got this error:
ubuntu@server:/usr/share/elasticsearch$ sudo bin/plugin install x-pack
Exception in thread "main" org.elasticsearch.env.FailedToResolveConfigException: Failed to resolve config path ["/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml"], tried file path ["/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml"], path file ["/usr/share/elasticsearch/config"/"/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml"], and classpath

at org.elasticsearch.node.internal.InternalSettingsPreparer.prepareSettings(InternalSettingsPreparer.java:95)
at org.elasticsearch.plugins.PluginManager.main(PluginManager.java:396)
and used this workaround to print the command to the console and run it manually.
Then I tried to run the command output from "sudo bin/plugin install file:///home/ubuntu/x-pack-5.4.1.zip":
