Hi there

I have a module in DNN 6.0.1 that, when uninstalled, generates an error saying it cannot find a file 'resources.zip.manifest'. Though I know what the resources.zip and the manifest *.dnn for a module are, I am unfamilar with resources.zip.manifest and what it could be used for. I can't find any relevant documentation about this. Is this a 'real' error, or generated by accident due to the failure of some other sub process of the uninstall?

Thanks very much if you can advise.

Regards

OK thanks, here is the thing in question, I just changed the content of some of the fields, e.g. [..] , but the structure is as for the real module:

The only thing is, I hadn't so far been assuming this was the problem, as the manifest is actually just a modified version of one generated automatically by the packaging utility. Also, it seems to install OK in terms of no error reported on the interface, which I would assume would be able to pick up any problems in in the XML?

Cheers
