Why can't I upload my addon to AMO?

Hello!

I've faced with problem while trying to store my extension for Firefox at AMO site.

The problem is that I've uploaded file with extension and got message that I must add additional information describing my extension, but got Access Denied message. And I can't see my extension as if it wasn't upload.

But when I try to upload it once more I get message that it's already uploaded:

and when I click "upload new version" I get "Access Denied" message:




Are there any way to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

Access Denied while trying to dealing with my uploaded extension.

I have developed an Add-on, I am having issues in uploading my .xpi

file in AMO website.


I get the following error message in the addon submission web page

when I try to upload my .xpi file.


AMO site error The version of this add-on is invalid: versions cannot

contain spaces


These are the tags in my install.rdf file .


<em:version>1.0</em:version>

<em:targetapplication>

<em:id>{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}</em:id>

<em:minversion>0.9</em:minversion>

<em:maxversion>3.6a1pre</em:maxversion>

Exactly the same problem, already write to amo-admins@mozilla.org, but no respond yet.
Also should to say that search-plugins adds correctly w/o any problems, so the problems only appear with add-ons

Hey, it's the same problem i have! It's uploads first but than it's says that access denied, all just like Vladimir descrobed!!

It's marked like "question", but it's the Problem! Big problem!

Ended up solving this myself since I got no responses. Just change your addon id. e.g blah@blah.blah to rat@rat.rat and re-upload it so AMO thinks its a new addon

Hi guys. Sorry for the inconvenience this is causing. It's a known issue and we'll have a fix on AMO shortly. Thank you for your patience.

Report here when it will be fixed please.
Regards.

I uploaded my addon, it accepted it. Then I couldnt continue to add details to it. So I tried to update it, but it says he already exists, but when I agree to update it, its says Addon Not Found and I cant do anything else to resubmit. ?

Any fix to this?

Andy, your original upload issue should be resolved.

I resolved the issue myself nearly three months ago by renaming the addon ID, but thanks anyway. Hopefully this sorts things out for the guys who renaming didn't work for.

I renamed the addon ID also, which did allow me to upload, but once I selected to edit the details of the addon, I got a 'Access Denied' message.

Any fix to this? Please!..

the id of the latest upload is
ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-12a3b9677092

Thanks

Not sure if my issue is related...

I'm unable to get past the validation step when attempting to upload an update to my add-on.

The extension works locally, and I believe should be valid.

What should I do?

Now, by changing the ID ive uploaded one, however, when I try to continue to edit it says Access is Denied. Going
back to the dashboard says I don't have any addons hosted on Mozilla.

Can I get any help here or is there a contact at Mozilla I can email directly?

I figured it out, thanks to the Bugzilla site. I had an empty <em:homepageurl> tag. I removed it and I was allowed to edit and complete after uploading. Seems like a silly reason to cause this error especially if it validates on upload but it's working now.

1. Download attached install.rdf and change the <em:id> in it to a random ID.
2. Compress the install.rdf prepared in step 1 to an XPI file.
3. Log in to preview.addons.mozilla.org.
4. Submit the XPI file created in step 2 as a new add-on.
5. Click the “Edit My Add-on” button and see where it is linked.
6. Realize that the install.rdf contains an empty <em:homepageurl> element :)
7. Remove the empty <em:homepageurl> element, and compress the new install.rdf
to an XPI file.
8. Submit the XPI file created in step 7 as a new add-on.

</em:homepageurl></em:homepageurl></em:id></em:homepageurl>

I am now able to upload my .xpi and it passes validation, but the links to status and "edit plugin" lead to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/deve...
note the "null" at the end.
I'm in a deep WTF, please help.
