Pluggo AU Scan fails to see plugins

Hi Everyone,

I'm having a problem where the Pluggo AU Scan fails to scan or
recognize all of the plugins that I have in my Pluggo folder.
The AU scan application seems to arbitrarily skip over certain
plugins each time i run the scan (different ones are skipped each
time). It is quite unpredictable, and often fails to see even the
original set of Pluggo plugins (those bundled with pluggo) not just
3rd party or self-developed ones. As a result, the AU validation
application in Logic doesn't see them as installed either. The
plugins all appear when i load them into applications other than AU
applications. Has anyone else had this problem? Is this a bug or a
result of something stupid that I am overlooking? I googled the
subject, but couldn't find anything pertaining specifically to this
issue. I don't recall this happening before 3.5.3, but am not
certain...
I think the issue is with the Pluggo scan rather than the AU val
program in Logic. When i run the AU manager in Logic 7, the omitted
pluggos are listed as 'not installed' and selecting it indicated a
"fatal errow: did not locate component."

I would greatly appreciate any help/advice,

Dual 2Ghz G5
OSX 10.4.4
Pluggo 3.5.3
Logic 7.1.1
Max/MSP 4.5.6
Motu 828 MK2

Summary: see above

Steps to reproduce: 1) run AU Scan... closely monitor the
scanning process and notice it skipping certain plugins
                    2) open Logic 7 and open pluggo plugin list....notice missing
plugins.

Expected results: That all pluggo plugins would appear in AU
application.

Actual results: Certain pluggos were omitted/not recognized by
the scan and thus do not appear in AU host such as Logic 7.

Hi,

I had the same problem!
And it appears, soon after I upgraded to
the latest pluggo update (I upgrade also hipno and max/msp
at the same time)
I resolved the problem in scanning my pluggos with the
pluggo scanner once again, reset the logic 7 au-manager,
and started the logic-au scanning again.
but this process is laborious after the several times doing
it, and I have to check my new built pluggos first in logic
before I know what I have to change.
Any chances for a clean solution?

another thing: pluggos I have made with tap.tools externals
always make crashing the au-validation and I have to use
them as not validated au (this works, but I thought the tap.tool upgrade has solved this problem??)

cheers

i've had no problem making pluggos with the tap.tools, all passes logic AU validation fine.... Haven't tried the latest pluggo version, and i all of a sudden feel like waiting a bit longer before doing so !
