Hi,

I sucessfully packaged my extension but then the installation always fail and I can't see what I am doing wrong at this point.

Here is my manifest :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ExtensionManifest
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" ExtensionBundleId="com.ozalto.someextension" ExtensionBundleVersion="1.0.0" Version="5.0">

</Icons>
               
</UI>
           
</DispatchInfo>
       
</Extension>
   
</DispatchInfoList>
</ExtensionManifest>

And there is also teh mxi file as I use host adapters :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<macromedia-extension id="com.ozalto.someextension" name="someextension" requires-restart="true" version="1.0.0">
   
<author name="Ozalto SARL"/>
   
<description></description>
   
<license-agreement></license-agreement>
   
<products>
       
<product name="InDesign" version="10.0" primary="true"/>
   
</products>
   
<files>
       
<file destination="" file-type="CSXS" source="someextension.zxp"/>
       
<file destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins" minVersion="10.0" maxVersion="10.9" platform="win" products="InDesign" shared="true" source="host_adapters/ID/win32/IDHostAdapter.apln"/>
       
<file destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins" minVersion="10.0" maxVersion="10.9" platform="win" products="InDesign" shared="true" source="host_adapters/ID/win32/(IDHostAdapter Resources)"/>
       
<file destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins" minVersion="10.0" maxVersion="10.9" platform="win" products="InDesign64" shared="true" source="host_adapters/ID/win64/IDHostAdapter.apln"/>
       
<file destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins" minVersion="10.0" maxVersion="10.9" platform="win" products="InDesign64" shared="true" source="host_adapters/ID/win64/(IDHostAdapter Resources)"/>
       
<file destination="$indesign/Plug-Ins" minVersion="10.0" maxVersion="10.9" platform="mac" products="InDesign" shared="true" source="host_adapters/ID/mac/IDHostAdapter.InDesignPlugin"/>
   
</files>
</macromedia-extension>

And I compile this way :

'/url/to/ZXPSignCmd' -sign '/Url/to/someextensionfolder /Url/to/someextension.zxp' "/url/to/certificate.p12" password -tsa http://timestamp.globalsign.com/scripts/timestamp.dll

Then the installation fails claiming

Failed to parse the extension file: please assign a correct name to your extension and check that path doesn't contain international characters. Path to extension must contain English character only for installation to complete

Anything obvious ?

Thanks in advance for your hints,

Loic

Are there any French characters in the URL path something like Lôic ?

Hi Trevor and thx for the interest and care.

I can't see any non ascii codes but I will double check.

But for what's worth, my client has another installation issue (this one claims that there is a file operation error).

Hi Loic.Aigon

Try changing Windows file path separators to “\” from “/”.
