Hello, I modified the Minimal Extropy skin quite a bit and the website looks fine. Then I decided to create a package, exported to a zip file all accompanying files, unzipped the package, changed the manifest and all Minimal Extropy references to my new skin name. Upon installation I am having the following problem: DNN reads the zipped file, but does not extract it to the Temp directory for installation. Can anyone point me out what I am doing wrong? Here is the installation error screen: StartJob Reading files Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/app_localresources\index.ascx.resx read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\BusinessMimimalistBlue.dnn read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/css\ie6skin.css read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/css\menu.css read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\bread_left.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\bread_right.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\center_bg.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\cpanel_center.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\cpanel_left.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\cpanel_right.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\left_bg.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\logo_left.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\logo_right.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\logo_top_left.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\logo_top_right.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\menu_left.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\menu_right.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\right_bg.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\submenu_active.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\submenu_hover.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images/ie\Thumbs.db read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images\menu_active.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images\menu_bg.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images\menu_hover.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images\search.gif read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue/images\Thumbs.db read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\index.ascx read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\index.css read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\index.doctype.xml read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\index.html read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\index.jpg read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\license.txt read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\releaseNotes.txt read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\skin.css read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\thumbnail_index.jpg read successfully Info File BusinessMimimalist_Skin_Blue\Thumbs.db read successfully EndJob Reading files done.

There seem to be files listed in your manifest, which are missing in your zip files.

This is not the problem. As you see: index.ascx.resx read successfully Info File ... Failure File specified in the dnn could not be found in the zip file: - index.ascx.resx There is nothing in the Temp directory, not a single file or folder during the installation process. It seems the unzipping happens to a different place. Any other suggestions?

 make sure to always use "/" instead of "\". also make sure, hidden files like thmbs.db are not get packaged.
