Mod Submitting error

[harsh21]

I wrote a small mod & when i try to submit it, i keep getting this error

Code Select Expand

You must upload a package file containing package-info.xml which contains the package id when submitting a mod to this site

Here is the package-info.xml file

Code Select Expand

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE package-info SYSTEM "http://www.simplemachines.org/xml/package-info">
<package-info xmlns="http://www.simplemachines.org/xml/package-info" xmlns:smf="http://www.simplemachines.org/">

I have also tried both zip & .tar.gz compression types, but same error. All the files are present in the root of the zip file. What else wrong i am doing ?

this mod is for SMF 2.0? i dont believe there is support for the <license> tag, can you try it without?

[harsh21]

I tried it without licence tag but same error.

[Illori]

not sure if it is causing the error but

Code Select Expand

<install for="2.0*"> is not correct it should be

Code Select Expand

<install for="2.0 - 2.0.99"> same for uninstall

maybe if you attached your package-info.xml file to your next post it may be easier to find the issue.

[harsh21]

Tried that also but didnt work.

   <id>harsh21:my_package_name</id>
   <name>My Package Name</name>

in addition to the version correction, try adding a real name?

Nop, your package-info is fine. I just uploaded the code you posted and it works directly.

Are you *sure* that there is a package-info.xml inside the zip? And that is the code you just posted?

Can you upload other MODs?

What program are you using to archive the package? I remember there was an issue with 7Zip at one time where it was using an odd compression technique.
