Description

This report is based on a Test, that Randy Fay made for us, thanks a lot to him!

I am working on improving the documentation on how to install a site package in a classic TYPO3 13.4 installation as there has been repeated request for this. So I generated a site package with the site package builder https://get.typo3.org/sitepackage and then tried to upload it in the extension manager. I only get the not very helpful message "Extension some_package is not available":

If I unzip the site package, manually move it into folder typo3conf/ext/some_package where some package is the exact Extension name I can activate it in the Extension Manger.

Choosing the site package based on the bootstrap package the first thing I see is an Exception of some bootstrap package classes not beeing found:

Then

If we want to keep supporting the Classic Installation I think it is very important that this keeps working.

The installation of the site package fails if the zip files name does not match the schme of <extension_name>_<version>.zip. The site package generator however adds no version.

https://github.com/TYPO3/get.typo3.org/pull/493 solves the problem by creating a zip file of the correct name.

However I think that the Error message displayed is still wrong, the exception for the wrong file name format is not thrown anymore
