Another Mac/ZIP problem ..

Hi !

I’ve a problem running my module (Mac OS X Leopard / Vassal 3.1.9).

I’ve designed my module, which is running whithout any problem. I’ve decided to unpacked the module to “clean” it. That’s done, and then I wanted to run this brand new module so I packed it and …
nothing : invalid module said Vassal.

I searched on the forum : I found a solution renamming the newly zipped module in .vmod … nothing my module is still invalid.
I tried with all the 7zip, stuffit and all … nothing : still invalid …
Maybe I deleted something wrong, so I tried unziping and zipping without any change in the module : invalid …

I’m cornered, so if you have an idea for me : I really would like to clean my module …

Thanks for helping

We need to see the module in order to tell you what’s wrong with it.

Thanks for your interest !

But I don’t think it comes from the module : you see, its normally running without any problem. It’s bugging when I unpack and pack it (even without any change inside).

It’s doing the same thing with all the modules I’ve downloaded (and which are normaly working fine). But ones I unpacked and repacked them (also without any change, just to test) it doesn’t work any more …

Seems that the problem is in the way the Mac zip (or unzip ?) the files but I don’t see where. By the way, all the files are not working no more even if I use a specified software (7x, stuffit …). :frowning:

That’s what I’m saying. We need to see what the module looks like after
you’ve repacked it.

The problem is that the only thing in the root directory of your “after” ZIP
archive is a directory called “Mahjong test zip 2”. You need the contents
of “Mahjong test zip 2” to be in the root directory of your ZIP archive.
