If you want to install something that isn't HDP you need to use a management pack.(mpack) An mpack gives Ambari information on how to manage software.
Bigtop has a management pack that will enable you to install Bigtop via Ambari. I haven't used it but it's apparently working. That will not fix your issue though as you know Ubuntu 18 isn't officially supported.(and out of the box will throw errors. I know I've supplied you with some info to help remove those errors but this question doesn't reflect those suggestions.)
