Need help - File mentioned in manifest but missing in zip file
Sep 02, 2015
Hi !
I'm trying to upload one of my zipped files to my LMS but I got error message saying that there's a file mentionned in the manifest that is not found in the zip fold. The file is Mobile/logo.jpg
I wonder if this is a file I added to the course or this is part of the automatic files that are created with the project. What kind of files is the MOBILE folder supposed to hold ?
So far, I've tried experimenting with the export options. In the past I successfully uploaded files created on the same computer to the same LMS. I'm still running Storyline 1 but I don't think that's related.
I've been through every slide in my file but there's no picture called logo.jpg.
There's no picture in the player either.
Any information on how to solve this problem is welcome.
Can I just delete the line in the manifest that mentions this file ? How do I repackage the zip file after that ?
Should I add any file and name it logo.jpg in the output and then zip it ?
Thanks for your help !

Also, I managed to upload the very same scorm package to another LMS... don't know if that helps...
Hi Fabrice,
Are you able to see that file within the published output folder? Since it loads up to another LMS, you may want to reach out to your LMS team as well to see if they're able to help you decode the error message.
Sorry, I thought I mentioned that. No the file is not in the output folder. I'll send a message to the developpers of the platform as well. Thanks !
No problem Fabrice and please feel free to keep us posted.
The developers of the platform says they can't do anything about it. The validation of SCORM on the platform is very rigorous and that's all.
Still I managed to solve my problem. Here's how :
1. published the course again but before I zipped it,
2. I opened the folder, found the manifest and deleted the problematic line referring to an absent file
3. zipped the file using articulate
4. imported it
And it went through without a problem.
Thanks myself for solving my own problem :)
Thanks Fabrice for sharing that update here and I'm glad you were able to fix it - I can't support modifications to the published output, but it sounds like that is a good method to have here for other users who may run into the same set up with a rigorous platform.
