Data Export Extension not importing, won't validate!

This extension won't validate, help please...

data export ext not working.PNG

I have followed the guide and no success, could there be an issue with the extension itself?

Hey Andy,

It appears this is due to a .jar conflict (specifically bcprov-jdk14-1.38.jar) with Thingworx 7.4+ (well, I am testing on 8.0, so I am making an assumption here). I can remove this jar and successfully get the package to import -- you can try the copy I have here: Dropbox - DataExporterExtension_v1.0.zip -- but I can't guarantee the extension will still work as intended (a different version of that library appears to come with the TWX platform).

As this is a Thingworx Labs extension, it is tested but not officially supported; see the marketplace posting:

Hey Andy,

Are there any more details in the Thingworx Application logs? It may be that it is incompatible with your version of Thingworx?

Thanks!

Hi James,

There are no details in the logs. I am using version 7.4.0-b159.

Hey Andy,

It looks like you might be trying to import the TW_Download_Data Export Extension.zip directly; but after looking at this download on the marketplace it appears the extension is actually zipped in a subfolder of that archive, Data Exporter Extension Package, as DataExporterExtension_v1.0.zip

Can you try unzipping DataExporterExtension_v1.0.zip and importing that as the extension, instead of the wrapper archive?

I get the following error message after your suggestion:

data export ext not working.PNG

different from before in that there is no message. Difficult to see where to go from here, also nothing in the logs.

Appreciate your response.
