This is an issue with rails 2.3.5 too. Try without --verbose, it should work.

Without --verbose, the install stay "running" for minutes, and don't install the plugin.
I tried to install others plugins and just work.

script/plugin install git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git should work.
--verbose is failing yes, seems like a bug.

Same problem on master:

$ script/rails plugin install git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git --verbose
Plugin not found: []

It doesn't seem to have to do anything with rails_xss, though. I get exactly the same when I try to install Paperclip as a plugin, so --verbose is the problem here.

Can somebody change the ticket name? "Plugin install with fails with --verbose option" seems like a better fit. :)

The problem is with order of params, not with verbose options it self.

If you invoke:

strzalek@imac-strzalek ~/projects/ruby/rails_sandbox ➔ script/rails plugin --verbose install git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git
Plugins will be installed using http
git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/strzalek/projects/ruby/rails_sandbox/vendor/plugins/rails_xss/.git/
git pull --depth 1 git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git
remote: Counting objects: 33, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (32/32), done.
remote: Total 33 (delta 5), reused 3 (delta 0)
Unpacking objects: 100% (33/33), done.
From git://github.com/rails/rails_xss
 * branch            HEAD       -> FETCH_HEAD
removing: .git .gitignore

It will work without problems. But when I execute command with --verbose at the end, then I'm also encountering errors:

strzalek@imac-strzalek ~/projects/ruby/rails_sandbox ➔ script/rails plugin install git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git --verbose
Plugin not found: []

Actually it's even not an error.

@lukasz as you said , I tried this

neo@myhost ~/p/awesome> 
rails plugin --verbose install  git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git
"install"
Plugins will be installed using http
git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/neo/projects/awesome/vendor/plugins/rails_xss/.git/
git pull --depth 1 git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git
remote: Counting objects: 33, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (32/32), done.
remote: Total 33 (delta 5), reused 3 (delta 0)
Unpacking objects: 100% (33/33), done.
From git://github.com/rails/rails_xss
 * branch            HEAD       -> FETCH_HEAD
removing: .git .gitignore

Now, I will remove the plugin

neo@myhost ~/p/awesome> 
rails plugin --verbose remove  git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git
"remove"
Removing 'vendor/plugins/rails_xss'

I hacked the rails gem to find out what is actually happening in the code. I changed this file railties-3.0.0.beta4/lib/rails/commands/plugin.rb

BTW, I added "p e.message" after line 422.

I will add the --verbose at the end

rails plugin  install git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git --verbose
"invalid option: --verbose"
Plugin not found: []

one more try

neo@myhost ~/p/awesome> 
rails plugin  install git://github.com/rails/rails_xss.git --quiet

According to the code --verbose at the end is a invalid option

The command can be used in the following ways

neo@myhost ~/p/awesome> rails plugin
