Answer 1

What you have posted is an incomplete pair of error segments (they should start w/timestamp). Nevertheless, not sure how you installed the plugins, but you appear to be missing some key dependencies.

 Failed to load: Build Timeout (1.20)  - Plugin is missing: token-macro (1.5.1)

token-macro is a dependency on Build Timeout, and appears not to installed.

 Failed to load: ECharts API Plugin (4.9.0-2)

This error is incomplete, but I would suspect is also missing a dependency. You can see what is installed on the ${JENKINS_URL}/systemInfo page, "Plugins" section. Not sure what you will see on the ${JENKINS_URL}/pluginManager/installed, but I suspect many plugins will be greyed out. It should explain why (ie: missing).

You would have to explain how you installed what you did to guess how got are missed. Rarely plugins simply declare as "optional" what should be declared as required, but goes undetected since almost everyone always installs the dependency.

Usually, they all point to a single missing plugin or a chain up from one. Check the logs and trace. Get all the pairs Failed to load: x - Plugin is missing: y. Install the ones said to be missing. Failing that, stop Jenkins, delete the /plugins directory and install them from scratch again. If the hpi/jpi package is corrupted, you may need to stop Jenkins, delete the package and the exploded directory inside plugins.
