Plugin bundle load fails

Hello,

 

as the title suggests, I am playing around with plug-ins and bundles. After referring to the manuals, I created a .bundle folder containing a basic .xml file:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ApplicationPackage SchemaVersion="1.0" AppVersion="1.0"
    ProductCode="[Add Unique Plug-in GUID Here]"
    Name="Test app"
>

  <CompanyDetails
    Name="Company name"
    Email="support@company.com"
  />
 
  <Components> 
    <RuntimeRequirementsOS="Win32|Win64|MacOS"Platform="AutoCAD|AutoCAD*"/>
  
    <ComponentEntry
	AppName="Probni app 1"
	ModuleName="./Contents/test01.lsp"
    />

	</Components>
</ApplicationPackage>

Since I'm interested in local installation only, these are the basic contents the xml file should have. Also, the module "test01.lsp" referred to is trivial:

 

(defun test01 ()

	(princ "Yello")
	(princ)

)

Now, I tried copying this .bundle folder to:

 

C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins

C:\Program Files\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins

C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins

 

In all cases, when I launch AutoCAD, it displays a bubble in the upper right which says it was unable to load unnamed app. Also, the log it creates looks pretty useless, and there is a lag of about 10 seconds until AutoCAD starts responding again.

 

I was looking forward to this easy way to structure applications, but it doesn't look so easy after all. Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
