I have a scorm package that works in Moodle. However, if unzip it to a folder and then rezip it and try to use it I get the following in Moodle:
"Incorrect file package - missing imsmanifest.xml or AICC structure"
Note, I'm doing this because I was trying to debug it and drilled down to this simple test:
Start with working scorm .zip package "TestCourse.zip"
On mac os x, I double click to extract it to the current folder.
I cmd click on it and selected decompress which makes "TestCourse2.zip"
I try to use "TestCourse2.zip" on Moodle as a scorm package and get the error above.
I tried using a different program to re-zip the folder and got the same results.
What am I missing here?
It's because you rezip the folder itself. You shouldn't do this. You should go into the folder root and then rezip all the contents to generate a new valid package.
imsmanifest.xml must be in the root of the zip file, not inside any folder (and do not change structure in any other way because the imsmanifest have dependencies with the other files).

I want to access to a directory of an xcode project that contains cocoapods (firebase framework) in my Desktop! But I keep getting: No such file or directory!
I tried to access to another non-project folder and it worked.
It also worked when I tried to access to a project folder that does not contain cocoapods!
I don't know why I could not access to any project folder that contains cocoapods!
When I list the contents of the desktop I got:
There is an # in the properties
What does that means and how can I access to the folder?
I just want to upload it to the Github? any solutions?
BusinessWallet is probably a framework bundle, which means that it is actually just one file, but appears as a directory in Finder. You can copy individual files out of it in Finder.
If you need programmatic access to contents inside the bundle, take a look here: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/CoreFoundation/Conceptual/CFBundles/AccessingaBundlesContents/AccessingaBundlesContents.html
I've downloaded spring-tool-suite-3.6.1.RELEASE-e4.4-win32-x86_64.zip and getting the following error while trying to unzip and install:
Error 0x80010135: Path too long
POM.properties
Type PROPERTIES File
Date Modified 6/11/2014 12:47PM
Size 146 bytes.
What may be the reason?
Possible solutions:
Rename spring-tool-suite-3.6.1.RELEASE-e4.4-win32-x86_64.zip to springts.zip
Move spring-tool-suite-3.6.1.RELEASE-e4.4-win32-x86_64.zip to C:/ or in another location that is not very deep.
Change your extractor to 7-zip.
Try with any alternative for zip such as 7Zip or WinRAR. 7Zip worked for me
This happens because of the zip file name being too long.You can rename the downloaded zip file to something like STS.zip (Give a short name) and then try to extract it.The error should now disappear.
When you extract, it will try to extract in a folder named "spring-tool-suite-3.6.1.RELEASE-e4.4-win32-x86_64" which is too long for a folder name. Simple rule of thumb -- install to C:\ and rename the above to STS361_x8664. Be very frugal with folder names.
This happens because the file name & path are too long.
Rename them to something smaller and simpler.
Here is the link that I found helpful
Step 1: Download STS zip file from spring official website
Step 2: After downloading Spring Tool Suite zip file then extract that then Open STS directory file click on STS icon below like this.
Step 3: Run that file then Select a directory as a workspace and browse your directory.
Here is complete installations of STS on Windows operating system.

I have installed Apache Web server & hosted(or uploaded) a .pkg file on it.
Everything is working on server side. I can see directories browser to get
From the server, i can download zip, txt, doc. etc other files, but i am unable to download .pkg(dot pkg). From the browser, .pkg file is actually looks like a folder.
I have on many servers, e.g., SourceForge.net and i have downloaded this package. Its downloadable.
So, my question is how to make .pkg file directly downloadable.
1. Is it some setting from my Apache server or
2. Need to create pkg of some other type?
Thanks for any help.
It sounds like you're missing the mime type for a pkg file.
You'll need to find the mime type config - on an OSX box I have, it's in /private/etc/apache2/mime.types
Add the line
application/x-newton-compatible-pkg pkg
to that file and restart Apache
Short Answer: yes you need to recreate the package by other way.
In OS X there are 4 main types of packages which you can install/distribute:
.pkg packages
.mpkg packages
.app bundles
.dmg drives
Further more .pkg/.mpkg packages have 2 more types flat and non flat packages.
Flat Packages are single file packages.
Non Flat Packages looks like a folder.
Your problem is that your package is a non Flat package. You can this post to create a Flat package.
I have created a new version of my Joomla extension.
Manual upgrade via zip file or the directory works fine.
But the automatic upgrade (which used to work fine before), now gives an error 500 and the following error messages: "Unknown Archive type", "*Update path does not exist" and "Installation unexpectedly terminated: Update path does not exist".
I have no idea why those messages appear.
The update.xml references the correct zip files. Downloading it manually works just fine.
Joomla(/php/apache) has all rights on the folder containing the joomla installation.
After trying the automatic update, the tmp folder contains the downloaded zip archive with the latest extension version, interestingly without the .zip extension. Is the Joomla downloader not correctly naming the file and then failing upon finding that the file doesn't have a .zip extension?`Or what could it be?
Would be very thankful for any ideas...
Edit: My project is hosted on github, and github seems to automatically create a subfolder in the downloaded zip archive, named -.zip.
I'm using a link to the tagged github zip directly in my update.xml
I'm not sure if github always added this folder in the zip file, back when it still worked for me...
Might the Joomla problem have to do with the zip file containng such a folder, and not directly the extension stuff at root level? If so, anybody know if/how I can change github to not create that subfolder?
Right, just had a quick test of this.
I couldn't seem to find out how to automatically zip up a sub folder (there is a way but I need to do some more research/ask questions regarding this), however what you can do is the following:
Create a zip of your Repo
Open the zip, extract the folder you wish to be zipped then zip it
Create a new version and then drag your zip file into the upload box
Publish the release
Here is an example, have a look at the "Creating Releases" sections at the bottom:
https://github.com/blog/1547-release-your-software
Hope this helps
To answer my own question:
Yes, github seems to have recently changed their policy to create a root folder in the zip file, named as the repository the zip file is downloaded for (stupid, if you ask me, since the exact same information is encoded in the zip file name already anyway!).
Edit and Rewrite: It seems that either something changed in Joomla or that if you adhere to a naming convention - namely the root folder in the zip file having the exact extension name (or, I think and have to test, actually the same as the file name, without the version information), then the automatic update will work.
So as in my case, I have a Joomla package; the package is now in a repository pkg_mypkg. The zip file generated by github has the name pkg_mypkg-version.zip (e.g. pkg_myfancyext-1.0.9.zip), and contains a folder named pkg_mypkg. And inside the pkg_mypkg folder is a pkg_mypkg.xml file, the extension manifest. And this actually seems to be the configuration where automatic update works.
An trying to get openframeworks to build me my application so that i can open it from anywhere and it will load the needed images from within the apps Resources folder.
I believe this is relative linking?
I have done it before, on an older xcode and oF 61.
To do this i dragged the needed images into the project file on the left and added it to the executable target, with in a 'build phase' -> 'copy files'.
Been trying all sorts of methods, ofSetDataPathRoot() which solved the problem last time isnt working for me this time.
Any ideas/help would be appreciated!
Thanks
First you need to tell xCode to copy your /bin/data directory into your application bundle by adding a build phase:
1. Click on your project in the Project Navigator
2. Select "Build Phases"
3. Toggle open the "Run Script" section and paste in the following:
cp -r bin/data "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/Resources";
Then tell your app where to find the data folder relative to itself within the bundle.
Inside the setup method of your oF app:
ofSetDataPathRoot("../Resources/data/");
ofSetDataPathRoot() should solve this problem. Perhaps you are setting the replacement root path incorrectly?
Try calling ofToDataPath() yourself on a string path and print out the result, then use Terminal and cd inside the .app bundle to check if the path sounds correct. Paths are expressed relative to the location of the actual executable inside the .app bundle, so if the executable is at myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp and the data files are at myApp.app/Contents/Resources then ofToDataPath( "texture.png" ) should return something like ../Resources/texture.png.
You can double-check the current working directory (myApp.app/Contents/MacOS in my example) by calling getcwd(), open up a terminal and type man getcwd for more info on that.
oF now sets data path root and does internal calls to ofToDataPath() by default. What version are you using?
Have you looked inside the product's package contents to make sure your resources are getting copies in the proper build phase?
