Add-on missing manifest

Hi, Guys.
I’m porting from chrome extension, my addon webExtension. When i trying validate, returned error: “Add-on missing manifest”. But i changed fields in manifest.json to addon requireds.

Version firefox 47

Hey, how are you validating the addon?

I’m taking a wild guess that you might be packaging the wrong directory. The mainfest.json should be in the root of the xpi file. Follow this guide. Also you can debug webextensions by temporarily installing them.
