Anybody know if I’m doing something stupidly wrong here? $ script/plugin install git://github.com/technoweenie/restful-authentication.git removing: /Users/jcohen/dev/rest\_with\_rails/theater\_login/vendor/ plugins/restful-authentication/.git Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/jcohen/dev/rest\_with\_rails/ theater\_login/vendor/plugins/restful-authentication/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 394, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (263/263), done. remote: Total 394 (delta 137), reused 329 (delta 100) Receiving objects: 100% (394/394), 357.75 KiB | 331 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (137/137), done. Plugin not found: [“git://github.com/technoweenie/restful- authentication.git”] Everything _seemed_ to get installed correctly in vendor/plugins/ restful-authentication, but the error message at the end is disconcerting. Any idea why this happening? Thanks! Jeff ---

It’s probably installing it via git (correctly) and then looking for it in your plugin sources and not finding it… at a guess.
