button panel 7.0.7 packaging for grafana direct installation seems to be incomplete

[andreacolpo]

Hi guys,
i have tried to install this plugin packaged here (https://github.com/cloudspout/cloudspout-button-panel/releases/download/7.0.7/cloudspout-button-panel.zip) through normal grafana process installation, that is :

• extract your zip under the path : /var/lib/grafana/plugins and assigning grafana:grafana user:group owners
• restarted grafana

But going to grafana plugin page i see the message "Error loading plugin. check the server startup logs for more information. if this plugin was loaded from git, make sure it was compiled".

So is there no a zip file already prepared for the grafana installation ?

I have also tried to change current cors status for my firefox (versione 82.0 64bit) (https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=firefox+enable+cors) but without success.

OS version : Redhat 7.7

From grafana log i see only this without any errors...

[root@node001 grafana]# grep -i button grafana.log
t=2020-10-27T06:42:53-0300 lvl=info msg="Registering plugin" logger=plugins name="Button Panel"
[root@node001 grafana]#

Thanks for any feedback.
Regards

Which Grafana version are you using?

Can you do a ls -laR of your /var/lib/grafana/plugins folder?

It should look like this:

$  plugins ls -laR

Is it maybe double-wrapped in a folder? I just downloaded the 7.0.7 release and tested with Grafana 7.2.0 not being able to reproduce it.

There is also the new Plugin version now available directly via Grafana. Hope that one helps, too!
