Problem with 'manifest.php' file

[fbrites]

Hello, I am a problem in manifest.php file.

I made a module's download and before I install in SugarCRM. I want to change the file manifest.php but after change I can't installing in SugarCRM: "The zip file is missing a manifest.php file. Can not proceed"

I think this is because the file manifest.php changed.

How can I resolve this situation?

Someone can help me?

Thank you

This usually only happens when it's missing. Are you sure that a manifest.php exists in the root of the zip file?

Yes I am sure. For example, when I install the module without edit the manifest.php file, it is installed correctly. If I edit the module (for example, deleting a word and re-write the same word) and try to install in SugarCRM already gives error.

Why does this happen?

Please post your manifest.php then

Hi Fábio.

Did you zip the folder containing the manifest.php or only the content of the folder?
The correct is zip only the content of the folder.

Cheers
