Chris,

So, then what is the problem? Why can I not install the module? Why do I get this error of version string being too short or long? Please help.

Thanks.

Abose, have you tried to install this module in another 4.9.x install besides your local development environment. Same question with another DNN 5.x install. Just an FYI, this is not a common issue.

I recall that there was an installer issue back in 5.1.x which generated that same error message if there were files with a .sql extension inadvertently included in the .zip package. Finally found the Gemini issue:

Although as I read through the issue, I believe this may apply to packaging rather than installing modules. I mention it, however, as a suggestion to also check the version format of all of the xx.xx.xx.SqlDataProvider script files in your package. Make sure that there of three groups of two digits each in the version portion of the filename.

Thanks to all who replied to my questions and all the helpful suggestions. I atlast found out what the problem was, but I still do not know why that would be a problem. It turns out that the line ModuleName.SqlDataProvider in the dnn file was the culprit. I had no use for this file and when I removed this snippet from the .dnn file, the installation went through fine. I do not know the rationale behind this, but this seems to be the problem in my case. If anyone can shed any light on this (may be the ModuleName.SqlDataProvider is an older feature which does not work with the 5.x.x anymore so it needs to be excluded) please let me know. Thanks. Abose
