I installed Octoprint on my old laptop and beforehand I installed the raspberry os on it windows was soo... slow.
I followed the insulation guide from how to install Octoprint on Linux until the part for adding the webcam as I wanted to use a DSLR camera instead.
After launching the Octoprint on my browser, I tried to install Octolapse -or any plugin- but it couldn't install it even on ssh.
The Message:

After reinstalling the os and installing octoprint using the commands provided, I tried to install octolapse but it didn't work with a different error massage but the same red notification on the side
After installing a plugin from the plugin manager (one of the plugin that was also mentioned while setting octoprint on the shh -recommended plugins- ) it installed
I reinstalled Octoprint using KIAUH. And it worked fine. I found this method on youtube while trying to install Klipper so I am no expert. Just thought that this might help.
