Cannot load Zabbix Frontend module

[D_Y]

Hi,

I am unable to load any frontend module on my zabbix server (version 6.0.23) by uploading the module directory to /usr/share/zabbix/modules/
I even tried the tutorial to create a basic module - https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...torials/module and loaded MyAddress/manifest.json
but still when I go to Administration > General > Modules and run Scan Directory, I always get an empty list with "No new modules discovered".
I also tried chown -R the dir to be zabbix or www-data user, but no change.
Can someone help me troubleshoot?

Thanks

Any help please?

Thanks, I think I have ticked all the pre-requisites - although the first prerequisite listed on that page says
"The module is located inside the modules directory of your Zabbix frontend installation (for example, zabbix/ui/modules)."
which seems to imply the modules directory could be at different locations based on a specific install.

But nowhere in documentation did I find a cli cmd or the location of a conf file where I can verify the actual path of the modules directory on a particular zabbix server?

If you installed using yum/apt packages the default directory of Zabbix frontend is:

/usr/share/zabbix

I have a similar problem and I put the module in the zabbix/ui/modules directory but the scan doesn't find the module.
