Hi Shaun,

i try to use packman with modx 2.0.5 pl - Safari

i have a error :

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)

all my folder are 755 permission

i just try with one template.

Hi

I just used packman for the first time and I would like to suggest a feature for an upcoming version:

I have a site which uses a lot of chunks and it would be much easier if I could either drag and drop them, have checkboxes instead of a dropdown list, or if I could import whole chunk categories.

just my 2cents

Thanks for consideration

I’m packaging some directories with packman ie. adding a ’css’ directory to assets. It seems when I then use this package I can’t write to the directory ’css’ which is created. Presumably because of ownership (MODx would be the owner of the files/directory) this also means I can’t change permissions on the directory. Am I on the right lines here, is there anything that can be done?

Also categories don’t seem to be preserved when a package is created with packman. Is this how it currently works or am I missing something?

Any advice much appreciated as I’m guessing a bit at the moment.
Thanks

Is it possible to have Packman create a Transport Package, which automatically creates and/or populates a database table?

I have only recently installed it and typically perform these actions manually, or through the whole _build process.
