Deploying Multiple Bundles at Once [message #1020795]

My application has about 10 or so bundles. Most of them dependent on another bundle in the pack. What I currently have been doing is using the pickup directory, and just manually coping the first one, then the second. I have to go in order or else I will get a dependency issue. I suppose I could write a script to speed things up. I was thinking writing a plan file would be the better way to do this. I wrote a plan file, but it just references the 10 bundles, and doesn't actually contain one. Where I am supposed to put the bundles that the plan references? I was hoping I could put them in the repository/usr directory, and then just manually upload the plan file in the admin gui, but that didn't work because the bundles were not started. I have a feeling there is something basic I'm not getting. When I deliver these 10 bundles to the customer, what is the best way to tell him to deploy them to get going fast? I hoping there is something automatic instead of having to say, start bundle#1,then #2, and so on...

You should be able to put bundles in repository/usr and deploy a plan which references them, either via the admin console or by dropping the plan file into pickup. All the bundles should then be installed, resolved, and started. If resolution fails, you should get diagnostics and the bundles will be uninstalled.

Please could you check the contents of your plan to make sure you have the correct syntax. I would try cutting it down to a plan referencing a single bundle with no dependencies and make sure that works first.
