I created a package for items in Sitecore, but forgot downloading the package in wizard.
Is there any way to download the package I created??
Many items have been changed, so creating the package again is not working.
A little old, but from within sitecore:
Start the installation wizard,
Click browse
Find the package (UI sucks, not sorting or anything)
Click download
From the sitecore file explorer, I couldn't go all the way the data folder (outside the website folder)
It will be in your data folder under the /packages directory.
If you haven't got access to the sever directly you can download the file using the File explorer.

The pacakage will be in your “~/Data/packages” folder.

I have a simple WinForms app that I'm trying to package with MSIX. The app itself requires additional files that when I build the MSIX App Project doesn't copy/include.
Specifically this LIBVLC folder that gets included during the WinForms app build itself.
If I manually copy that folder over into the AppX build folder, everything works. Obviously I'm trying to automate including that folder.
Folder manually copied over in screenshot below:
How can I accomplish this? GitHub minimal repo:

I suspect that this line is your issue : https://github.com/aherrick/MSIXWinFormsLIBVLC/blob/0e717828a16e796a7a27e415cf45d33a50327da9/MSIXWinFormsLIBVLC.AppPackage/MSIXWinFormsLIBVLC.AppPackage.wapproj#L80
The nuget package isn't really well understood by the build tools as those are native files that we collect "before build". It seems to cause issues when a project references a project that references the nuget package, and the usual workaround is to reference the nuget package directly in the topmost project.
Is it possible to reference a nuget package in a .wapproj ?
If it isn't, that's an issue for this repository https://code.videolan.org/videolan/libvlc-nuget/ . Contributions welcome
Is it possible to "install" a module just by pasting the file of the module and just paste it into the DesktopModules folder and have the modules working on the website?
If not, is there a way where I can export the whole module from one system and install it onto another system?
Have you tried creating a module package for this module? (when you click the edit pen for the extension, you should find a "Create package" button on the top right).
Take care to include the assembly/assemblies needed, and also the Sql Server scripts to install the module correctly (often found in the module folder under Providers/DataProvider/SqlDataProvider/*.SqlDataProvider). There might be other files in the module folder (images, css, etc), be sure to include them in the package, then try to create it. You will find the ZIP file under /install/Modules then, move it away from there somewhere on your local file system (otherwise the installer might try to install it with the next update). Then try to update the extension in a testing system, check if it works and you're done. If there are errors it might be that you are missing some files that have to be included. Check the error messages, and restart.
There used to be a way using the /Install/Module/ folder (put ZIP file there, then call /install/install.aspx?mode=installresources) If you are on an old version of DNN (7 and earlier?) you can still use this. But you've got a load of security issues that should drive you to upgrade.
I don't know of a good way to do this now. For security purposes DNN removes the Install resources after an upgrade.
IF you already have the module installed in both locations, you could copy the resources for the file from server to server (DLL in the BIN folder and the contents of the desktopmodules folder) assuming you don't have any MANIFEST file changes that need registered.
I also try to add plugin manually as suggested in APOC procedure not found
but not nothing seems worked, please help me out. Find screenshot here
In Neo4j Desktop, when you upgrade a Project's database to a newer version, the Project's plugins are not automatically upgraded for you.
To upgrade a Project's DB version manually, you can do this:
Open the Project (while its DB is stopped).
Click Manage.
Click the dropdown arrow next to Open Folder and select Plugins.
Delete the old APOC jar file from the plugins folder.
Get the right APOC jar file version from https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/neo4j-apoc-procedures/releases, and put it in the plugins folder.
Start the DB, and the APOC plugin should start running.
If the Project's UI still shows an error for the plugin, try closing the desktop and re-opening it.
Can any one suggest me on how to remove files from a existing sitecore package(Sitecore Media Framework Brightcove rev. 130924
) so that it contains only sitecore items and no sitecore files(dll or config files or xml controls that we see in sitecore modules folder).
And we will be deploying the files manually after installing this new package .
Thanks,
Suhas
It's a zip archive. Inside it you will find another zip; "package.zip". Inside that package file, you will find a root folder named "files". Remove that folder, and zip the whole think back up again.
Should be all you need.
Documentation here: http://sdn.sitecore.net/Articles/Administration/Installing%20Modules%20and%20Packages.aspx
You can delete files folder direct from Zip file.
I changed source of DotNetnuke (a little!) and I want to package an install version of my new DotNetNuke.
How Can I do this?
p.s: I know It's not recommended to change the source but I have no another option
(Telerik calendar do not support my date format and I have to replace it with another calendar !)
Thanks in advance
Answer depends on what you have changed, but the simplest way is to deliver patch that should be installed after normal dnn installation. For example, if you have only changed dll, you can ask to follow normal dnn setup instructions and finally relpace dll. If it's more than on file, you can review how dnn upgrade package is built. It follows same folder structure and places only changed files. So if you have couple of dlls changed in bin, the will be placed in bin folder, and if you have changed some ascx file it should be placed in same path by creating same folder hierarchy.
You can also create a package that can be installed to deploy your changes but for smaller set of files it will be complecated.
Let me know if you need more help.
You can package any change into a DNN install package by including the compiled files along with a DNN Manifest file. This can then be installed via the Extensions page. A manifest file is an Xml file which controls where the contents of an install zip are installed. You can make it as simple or as complicated as you need. You can also include xml merge statements to make changes to the web.config file upon install and uninstall. See the wiki for reference : http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Wiki/Page/Manifests.aspx
Incidentally, you may have been able to deliver your modified telerik source as a separate provider, and configure it via the web.config, thus saving you from modifying the source code. To do something like that, you would build your own module, and plug it in and replace the standard Telerik references.
