Plugin problem..file doesnt exist?
This is weird. I have written a 'fun' plugin just for a mess around. I'll be releasing it on freeware once I have this last little detail sorted out. EVERYTHING except the templates being put in the 'templates' folder is working. I have just opened up Guess.tar, and seen all the files in it (see Guess.tar for yourself).

The problem I am having is when installing;

Error running installation code: Plugins::Guess (15321): Unable to extract guess_incorrect.html (Unable to find a file named: 'guess_success.html' in tar archive.) at /home/dumps/public_html/templates/admin/GT/Plugins/Manager.pm line 247.

The code is;

Code:
Error running installation code: Plugins::Guess (15321): Unable to extract guess_incorrect.html (Unable to find a file named: 'guess_success.html' in tar archive.) at /home/dumps/public_html/templates/admin/GT/Plugins/Manager.pm line 247.

This is REALLY annoying me as I'm so close to completing it!

Instead of writing the file then reopening it and reading everything into an array to change the perl path you may want to take a look at the mylinks plugin to see how I did it in there (thanks to Alex).

I'm not sure about the other problem...maybe the tar corrupted?

....seems weird though as it opens in winzip.

Yeah..I tried that...but it didn't seem to work for me Unimpressed I may try it again...

I also thought the template problem was a corrupt tar file...but even after I deleted the file, and then re-added it to the plugin, I still had the problem Frown
