Can't Locate package
I made a channel today, put my roku into dev mode, uploaded the zip and everything works great. I can navigate the channels, stream video, etc. The issue I am having is when I go to publish. The owners.roku.com add channel area wants me to upload the .pkg file. From what I understand, it should be on my roku box when I goto the url of the box. There is no download link for the package. What did I do wrong? Everything else works great though. I am guessing it is an issue with the password. I telnet in, type 'genkey' and get a password. When I use it, I get invalid password errors. I tried copy and paste and enter by hand several times.

Re: Can't Locate package
I'm guessing you didn't save the PKG file to your computer.
Works fine for me. Do this - telnet to your roku, port 8080, type genkey
When it's done, right-click the window, select all, then press enter on the keyboard.
Open notepad
Click edit/paste or control-V
Highlight the password and paste it into the packager field.
Give the app a name/version, and click Package
When it says success, click the blue hyperlink to the left and save the file *.pkg

Re: Can't Locate package
Please go step by step through the Channel Packaging and Publishing Guide Section 3.0. Note that when the .pkg file is created, there is a link on the packaging page that you click on to download the package from the Roku box.
