Cannot install custom Aimeos extension

promptnet · Post by **promptnet** » 27 Nov 2020, 10:11

Hi,
I use TYPO3 10.4 with composer and PHP 7.3 (Aimeos: 20.10.2).
Today I downloaded a custom extension: https://aimeos.org/extensions/
Then I tried to install this extension with composer but it did not work.
My folder structure:

root
- packages
  - a custom extension which works, symlinked to public/typo3conf/ext
  - custom aimeos extension
- public
  - typo3conf
    - ext
      - aimeos
      - other extensions

The installation seems to be okay - no error message. But it is not installed!?
What do I have to do?
Thanks for help,
Kurt

Sorry, while searching for the problem, I found out that the extension is installed within the main aimeos extension, and it works perfectly!?
But, what happens if I update the main aimeos extension? Do I lose the custom extension?
Thanks for an answer.

In composer installations, the extensions are installed in the ./ext/ directory besides ./vendor/ and ./public/ and are not overwritten by composer if you update.
