Error Create Extension Release web form
October 22, 2012, 02:52:17 am
Hi guys,

I'm trying to upload a new extension to the directory (it is called Option Values Importer)
I could create the first step (extension basic information), but when I try to create Extension Release, I've got an error (Just "Error", not any particular message) when submitting.

I attach the extension's info.xml file in case something it's wrong or missing there

Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<extension key="com.ixiam.modules.optionsimporter" type="module">
  <file>optionsimporter</file>
  <name>Option Values Importer</name>
  <description>Option Values Importer from CSV file for Custom Fields</description>
   <urls>
    <url desc="Main Extension Page">https://github.com/ixiam/com.ixiam.modules.optionsimporter</url>

I'm not too familiar with it but just based on a quick look at your xml I see quotes in the <comments> tag. Maybe the parser is strict about that and wants those escaped, i.e. "&quot;"

Also I'm not sure if it's still supported but you might want to have a look at the scripts in bin/migrate which can import/export option values.

Hi demeritcowboy,

No luck excluding the quotes "" from the XML, still getting an Error Message
I know that export/import script, but this extensions it's focus on end user capability to do so, without access to the console, just the web interface.

We have many customers and users who get very frustrated when they realized the have to type in hundreds or even thousands of different options for their custom fields.
And usually they have all this options stored in different formats (CSV, text files, Excels,etc) from their previous systems

cheers!

Thanks, Luciano!

I'm able to reproduce and to get a more detailed SQL error. This seems like a bug which involves writing duplicate entries to the (node_access) table. I'm not deeply familiar with how this access-control was implemented, so I'll forward it to the folks who put it up. (If they can't get to it in a reasonable time, then I'll dig deeper.)

I'm told that this has been fixed. It appears that the nodes have been created while testing the fix:

http://civicrm.org/extensions/option-value-importer
http://civicrm.org/extensions/option-value-importer/release-1-1

It looks like the 'downloadUrl' needs to be set, though; you can do that here:
