[opencms-dev] Modules mechanism in OpenCMS

[Christoph Kukulies]

Please help my memory: are .zip files in the modules directory automatically imported into OpenCMS (here 16)?
I'm importing a bunch of modules that were running under OpenCMS 9.5.

I copied the WEB-INF/packages directory over to the new server. I did a 

cd WEB-INF/packages/modules
mv -n ../*.zip .

Then I tried to "import module from server" but I'm getting told:

Cannot import module from source "/var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/packages/modules/2014-08-04-kukus-Sandkasten.zip". It is already installed.

OTOH, the module is not listed in the VFS.

What is the correct way to import a module from server?

And now, since I may have clobbered my modules directory, what is the original content of the modules directory after a fresh installation without any modules imported?
