Add-on does not have the correct structure - jamix - 2013-08-10

I'm trying to add a dummy add-on to XBMC and I'm getting the "Add-on does not have the correct structure" error.

Filename: plugin.video.rockpeaks-0.1.0.zip
Contains: addon.xml, default.py

addon.xml looks like this:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<addon id="plugin.video.rockpeaks" version="0.1.0" name="RockPeaks" provider-name="jamix">
    <requires>
        <import addon="xbmc.python" version="2.1.0"/>
    </requires>
    <extension point="xbmc.python.pluginsource" library="default.py">
        <provides>video</provides>
    </extension>
    <extension point="xbmc.addon.metadata">
        <summary>Plays live music videos from RockPeaks</summary>
        <description>Choose from a huge selection of live music videos available at RockPeaks</description>
        <platform>all</platform>
    </extension>
</addon>

default.py contains nothing but a few lines of comments.

The .zip is being created in Windows XP, so there's no extra Mac OS junk inside.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Correct, but to make it more clear:
The zip should contain a folder named like your add-on ID containg the required files.
Zip File: plugin.video.rockpeaks-0.1.0.zip
Filename: plugin.video.rockpeaks
Contains: plugin.video.rockpeaks\addon.xml, plugin.video.rockpeaks\default.py

Go ask fusion. Nothing to do with xbmc.org.

I see you are new here. Welcome to the forums.

Being new here you might not realise that fusion is a banned topic here.
