Package failed

rong · May 22, 2024, 2:40am

In the develop environment, it works well. But when I package and install it, get -1 error.

I’ve tried to change the ccx suffix to zip and unzip it, but failed.
Here is the unzip fail error:

Any ideas about this trouble issue? thanks very much.

Of course, another ccx is installed successfully, so I don’t think this is a common problem.

  "host": {
    "app": "PS",
    "minVersion": "23.0.0"
  },

Did you try Validator for UXP - Visual Studio Marketplace ?

If it would still fail without seeing errors here I can add new rules if we can find what is wrong

rong · May 22, 2024, 8:51am

Thank for you help, this plugin works like a charm, helping me fix some problems.
But the package still cant be installed and unzipped…

Jarda · May 22, 2024, 8:55am

Array in host is not supported. Are you sure you have object instead of array? UDT changes manifest.json automatically. But you should do it explicitly if you don’t pack with UDT.

Karmalakas · May 22, 2024, 8:58am

Yes Exactly what I posted @rong, did you try it?

rong · May 22, 2024, 9:20am

Yes, I’ve fixed it, but the same error happens.
now the manifest is like this:

Jarda · May 23, 2024, 3:47am

-1 could be anything https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-common-addon-installation-issues.html

Manifest error should be -4.

What if you take different plugin that can install and put your manifest in it? And then slowly change it file by file until it breaks?

rong · May 24, 2024, 2:17am

I’ll try it later, thanks.

YesserKira · May 24, 2024, 1:30pm

Have done few adjustments, try it and let me know if it works.

Finally, it works after the .gitignore with “node_modules” is added.
Since I found typescript-webpack-sample has the .gitignore.

Yes, with .gitignore the “node_modules”, it works now.

Plugin should not contain empty file. But -1 meaning unkown error is pretty bad error message. Someone should do revision of all error messages in UPIA.
