Plugins do not appear in Ext folder

I just installed 2 plugins via the FM Server 9 AutoUpdate. The plugins installed properly but neither of the appear in the Extension folder of my FM Pro app. Plugins installed with this method under version 8 - 8.5 did appear there. If I search my entire computer, the plugin doesn't appear either. I even checked for invisible files.

 

Anyone know if this is a bug, or what's up? Does v9 handle plugins differently?

Have you read the "FileMaker ® Server 9 Guide to Updating Plug-ins" document? Is it all set up as per the instructions?

 

When you say that the "plugins installed properly", does that mean that they work on the client machine? Have you got scripts to test for their existence and version?

 

If it all works properly, the plug-ins should be installed in the client’s Extensions folder (in the FileMaker Pro 9 folder). Do you have multiple FileMaker Pro versions installed?

 

In short, what have you set up to update the plug-ins? What have you set up to check it all worked and there were no errors?

Just found out the FM9 places plugins in /Users/myuser/Library/Application Support/FileMaker/Extensions

 

Thanks.
