Moving plugin to new server and not showing in client

I developed a plugin with meta sdk and have been using it on the same machine. When I move it to a new machine (in the 'plugins' folder) it does not appear to load in the VMS. Is this a CMake issue? I am using the default cmake file that comes with the stub analytics plugin sample. Thanks.

  Hi Mike,

   

  Please check if your new machine has all the required dependencies, especially if you are using debug build.

  Also, what do you see in server log regarding your plugin?

  Hello Mike,

  Do I understand right, that you are using stub_analytics_plugin code base and develop you plugin by modifying/adding the code?

  What is the name of the resulting binary file?

  Hi Andrey,

  Yes my plugin modified the the stub_analytics_plugin code base. However, when I build the original stub analytics plugin code on one machine and transfer it to another, that doesn't show up either. Have you tried this? Do you have any insight to possible missing dependencies, cmake issues? I tried installing the .NET framework and this did not fix it. 

  Thanks!

  Hi Mike,

  So, the name of your plugin binary is libstub_analytics_plugin.dll. The Server by default is supplied with libstub_analytics_plugin.dll located in the plugins_optional folder. If you move/remove the binary from plugins_optional folder everything should work.
