**Summary**

I can’t install plugins either by the command line, or by using the admin area UI. I’ll go through both scenarios.

&nbsp;

**Scenario 1: Steps to reproduce (command line install)**

Install Shopware 6 using docker. Create composer.json and BundleExample.php according to this guide: [https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-platform-dev-en/getting-started/indepth-guide-bundle/setup](https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-platform-dev-en/getting-started/indepth-guide-bundle/setup)

Atempt to install using this line:

```
bin/console plugin:install --activate BundleExample

```

&nbsp;

**Current behaviour**

After running the install command, this error is shown in the console:

```
Shopware Plugin Lifecycle Service

```

`Install 1 plugin(s):`

- `Example for Shopware (v1.0.0)`

`In PluginLifecycleService.php line 405:`

`Call to a member function setContainer() on null`

&nbsp;

**Scenario 2: Steps to reproduce (admin area UI)**

Install Shopware 6 using docker. Create composer.json and BundleExample.php according to this guide: [https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-platform-dev-en/getting-started/indepth-guide-bundle/setup](https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-platform-dev-en/getting-started/indepth-guide-bundle/setup)

Run this line so that the plugin is visible in the admin area:

```
bin/console plugin:refresh

```

Go to the admin area then Settings \> System \> Plugins. (at this point a console error appears - see logs below)

Click “Install” next to the Example for Shopware plugin.

&nbsp;

**Current behaviour**

After clicking “Install”, an infinite loading spinner appears. The plugin doesn’t get installed.

&nbsp;

**Relevant logs**

On navigating to Settings \> System \> Plugins, I see the following error in the console:

```
POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/_action/store/checklogin?language=en-GB 500 (Internal Server Error)

```

Here is the response.

                "files": {},
                "cookies": {},
                "headers": {}
            }]
        }]
    }]
}

```

I’m not sure if this is relevant, but I get a similar response from `http://localhost:8000/api/v1/_action/store/licenses?language=en-GB` when I navigate to Settings \> System \> Plugins \> Licenses.

Hello @Rearden‍,

this error also occurs&nbsp;if you misconfigured your&nbsp;_composer.json_&nbsp;file.  
Please double check if the properties **extra.shopware-plugin-class** , as well as the&nbsp; **autoload.psr-4** &nbsp;object is configured properly and contains correct namespace- and class-names.

Kind regards,  
Patrick&nbsp; ![Shopware](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/shopware/original/1X/86c57fbace799dd4eb1f1b8a2d3bdc1733f0aea1.png "Shopware")

Hi @Patrick‍

My composer file was correct since I had copied it straight from the tutorial. After looking at the documentation again I realized I had made a silly mistake - my BundleExample.php file was not in the right location.
