[SOLVED] com_zimbra_dnd.zip installation failed

[friedmar]

If I try to install com_zimbra_dnd.zip on the server with the admin client I get an error saying that the deployment failed.

on the Server I get the following message:

Any idea?

What happens if you try and deploy it from the CLI ?

[typiquement]

zimlet description not found: com_zimbra_dnd.xml

you get this error because the xml file in the zip doesn't have the good name. The solution is to unzip your extension, find the equivalent of the "com_zimbra_dnd.xml" and rename it.

the name has to be the same between the xml file and the zip file

This was not the reason. But it led me to the solution.

The files in the zip had been in a directory. So i created a zip without the directory and it worked.
