Plugin activation error

Troubleshooting
1

I can activate my plugin on my local docker in preview mode but not on the company server.
Any advice?:slight_smile:

I do pretty much the same as in: Quick Start

Error:

Where are you loading the plugin from/installing it from?

I bundle the files into a tar file and then upload/enable it via the system console ui.
is that what you mean?

Yes, and sorry for the delayed response. Is it at all possible for you to share a copy of the plugin with me so I can test it myself? Thanks!
