New uploaded module not showing up in Modules Menu?

Post by badger »

I've just uploaded the Bookmarks module to a new install of 0.13

it's not showing up in my module menu so I can click the install link.

That usually means that it's not in the right directory, but I compared with another install and it's right.

The path for bookmarks upload was:

*cms root*/modules/booksmarks/

I uploaded 3 times to make sure.
I tried two versions of 2.0 found on download page:

- Bookmarks 2.0   2006-02-17 09:25
- 2.0   2006-02-16 06:30

This is the same version I have installed on my other site. I did a file by file diff of the two folders (on my working and non working sites) using Beyond Compare ftp diff tool, files are exact.

I cleared my cache even.  I've hard refreshed my browser, and even tried it in IE.

Please help?

The directory name has to match (letter for letter, case sensitive) the name of the .module.php file
so in the case of bookmarks, you probably need the directory to be named Bookmarks
