a couple times without any luck.

The error that I received was:

Error: serendipity_plugin_guestbook:a8f858c03a5c38ba82101ce82f39831a ()

Please report this bug. This error can happen if a plugin was not properly downloaded (check your plugins directory if the requested plugin was downloaded) or the inclusion of a file failed (permissions?)

Hi!

Are you able to fetch other plugins via spartacus?

Can you check the directory permissions of your plugins/ folder? Does a folder serendipity_plugin_guestbook exist there and is writable?

Best regards,
Garvin

thanks for the reply. the problem was even though the download was from the sidebar section of the website and are labeled plugin_x when the download was unzipped it created the directory as an event and not as a plugin.

serendipity_event_guestbook
serendipity_event_linklist

I tar'd the contents into a _plugin_ dir and it installed fine.
