I’m trying to submit my first extension, and after the first screen “Ready to Submit”, I click the “Submit” button, but then I immediately get an error screen with “The file ‘semver’ couldn’t be opened because there is no such file”.
Yes, I believe Cameron is correct. There’s a known issue where symlinks are not currently supported within extension bundles, related to the underlying zip archive library we use to package it up for sending to the server not supporting them properly.
Thank you @apexskier and @logan, this was indeed caused by my node_modules directory. After removing it I was able to submit my first extension for Nova
I’m seeing two ways to make this process better in the future:
A better error message, mentioning symlinks as unsupported
Some sort of ignore file à la .gitignore to exclude files and directory when packaging the extension (I think I saw that already floating around on the forums)
