Zenoss Zenpacks not installing??

[Kaya Saman]

Hi,

I'm trying to install a Zenpack on my demo of Zenoss in order to be
able to query our MSSQL backend servers however I'm having quite a few
issues.

These are what I'm trying to install:

ZenPacks.community.WMIDataSource-3.0.egg
ZenPacks.community.WMIDataSource-3.0.egg.zip
ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_MSSQL-2.0.1-py2.6.egg
ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_MSSQL-2.0.1-py2.6.egg.zip
ZenPacks.community.ZenODBC-4.0.egg
ZenPacks.community.ZenODBC-4.0.egg.zip


A typical error is this:


$ zenpack --install /root/ZenPacks.community.WMIDataSource-3.0.egg

misspelled?)

Reading up about the error it seems that the version of Python is
wrong however, 2.6 is installed and attempting to install the:

ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_MSSQL-2.0.1-py2.6.egg

pack gives the same errors??


Can anyone help? I'm not sure if this is a Zenoss Generic issue or if
it's something to do with the Zenoss 'port'!
