Answered Modx Revo Packet manager not showing entries after move to new server

Hi all,

I have a little problem after migrating my site from a local mamp server to an online server. All is working fine, but when I go in the package manager, none of my installed packages in showing. They work but just not showing in the list.

What can I do about this? Because I want to install some new package, I downloaded it but I can't activate it in the blank list.

My version is MODX Revolution 2.2.2-pl (traditional)

Check the permissions on the core/packages folder and its files.

Thanx for the info

755 or 777? For these files?

Depends on your server configuration.

Hi there,

Still doesn't work

tried 755 on the core/packages folder and files, also tried 777.

Cleared caches manually, run setup again.

Any other methods I could try?

When I do a refresh on the package manager page, it keeps on showing loading icon, but doesn't do anything

upgrade done, still not showing stuff in package manager version is now 2.2.6.

downloading new package works, but when it's time to show them and activate them, none is shown.

Is it possible that your new server does not have the PHP zip libraries enabled?

Yes !

That did the trick ! Setting change to Yes and the packages show up

Could this be a problem with the zip program on the server with the host? Never had any trouble before on their servers, maybe the changed something.

Thanx for the solution !
