Plugins refuse to install

Question

Hi,

I have made a zip without a top-level folder:

unzip -l customapp.zip

But OCSinventory reports (debian 10 version 2.5+dfsg1-1) still refuses to install it with

ERROR: customapp is an invalid plugin, check your sources.
Installation aborted !

I looked the OCS code and found

but in the plugins (found here: https://plugins.ocsinventory-ng.org/ then refactorized zip files) have not those plugin_* functions in install.php:

What am I missing? Do I have plugins for a previous version of OCS?

Best regards & thank you all for this excellent piece of software.

Hi,

my company has developed more than 60 exclusive plugins for OCS (predictive maintenance, supervision, helpdesk & IT support, status summary, multiple SNMP device type, geolocation of Windows machines, etc.)

If you want more information, please contact me privately.

Best regards, Stephane
