Modx fred not showing up under "Extras" when installed

I installed FRED but it doesn’t show up under extras. I’ve installed it on many modx sites. This is the first time I’ve experienced this.


I get this output:

Did you do a hard-refresh in the browser?
Are you logged in as an admin (Sudo User)?

Ah that was it. I wasn’t a sudo user :person_facepalming:. Thank you.

There is a resolver that sets permissions that fails during the installation (see the red line in your printscreen above).

You could go to the indicated file /www/core/packages/fred-3.0.0-pl/modCategory/35c5d4e913910b8464491d5b6158c2d0.resolve.acls.resolver and replace the string 'Admin' with 'Administrator' on line 10.

$group = $modx->getObject('modAccessPolicyTemplateGroup', ['name' => 'Admin']);

Then reinstall the extra. This should fix the resolver (and set the permissions).
