Humm, when I upload a new mod to the module folder, they don't show up to be installed.

- Worked fine untill a day or 2 ago, so hummm... ??

I double checked the folder on the server and everything is as it should be but the new mods just don't show up to be installed...

Anyone else ever have this problem?

Thanks for any replies!

Hi,

Welcome to Xoops
For your problem,
1) have you verified that the new modules you have uploaded are not in a sub folder ?
2) before to have this problem, did you installed any other module ?
3) if the problem persists, try to re upload the folowing folder :
/xoops/modules/system

I ftp'd the folders to the server. - verified the folder contents as well as the upload.

I've probably got a half donzen uploaded that arn't showing.

All the previous mods are still fine.

I'll try re-uploading the system folder and see if that does the trick! (I can just overwrite this folder right?)

Thanks for the replies!

normally, your modules are like this :
http:/www.mysite.com/modules/mymodule

sometimes, the modules are zipped with the full folder hierarchy, so you can have :
http://www.mysite.com/modules/mymodule/html/mXoops2_modulename/ ...

Verify this.

I uploaded and overwrote the modules/system folder and updated the ststem mod through the admin but they still don't show.

- I've pretty much got everything that I need working great, so I don't think that this is going to inhibit me too much for now but still, - kinda wierd..

I very much appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks!

Ok, I dug through all of the mods on the server and found that I'd uploaded soapbox2 several days ago, - it was a hacked mod and not in mod structure.

When I looked at it the other day, I guess that I was just looking for mod sub folders and making sure that I didn't upload the mod root, just the modules/my mod folder.



Once I took that off of the server, the other mods showed up!

- You were right all along!

Thank so much Superman, you've saved the day for me!! ; )
