 * Hi @[apsara19](https://wordpress.org/support/users/apsara19/),
 * Is it a plugin created by you or one from the WordPress repository? What error
   are you getting or what exactly does it mean that you can’t upload it?

 * It is not a plugin from WordPress repository. It is a plugin Author of InkTheme.
 * **The Error**
 * An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this
   server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the [support forums](https://wordpress.org/support/forums/).
 * Try Again

 * What sort of path is wp-Apsara/HOME-PILOT BEACH RESORT? Is that the root installation
   path for WP? Or is it where you tried to install the plugin?
 * While you could install WP there, it’s not where plugins belong. Relative to 
   the WP installation’s root folder, new plugins normally belong in a new folder
   in /wp-content/plugins/, but it is possible to specify alternative paths for /
   wp-content/, so YMMV.
 * Anyway, if the plugin is zipped into a properly structured file on your local
   computer, using the Upload Plugin button from the new plugins screen and choosing
   the .zip file will cause WP to install the plugin in the right location where
   ever it is.
 * If you get an error in doing this or when activating the plugin, there’s something
   wrong with the plugin’s code. I recommend seeking further guidance from the plugin’s
   developer through their dedicated support channel.
