Hello,
We are currently in the process of upgrading our DNN version. For this upgrade we have to bulk install multiple modules. Unfortunately when bulk installing the modules, we receive the following error. This blocks us from bulk installing any modules. The .zip files are still available on the web server when when we navigate to the folder.
We have no idea what we could do to solve this issue, could anyone help us solving this issue? We have already checked if we can unblock the module installation .zip files, but we don't have that option in the properties menu of the .zip files.
The procedure we currently follow for bulk installing the modules is:
Maybe an important thing to add, we have been able to execute this procedure of bulk installing modules without any problems on different Azure App Services, so it looks like this issue on only existing on the App Service we are currently trying to upgrade our modules.
Yes, that is the correct way of doing this but there could be dependencies. If I install modules that way and for example I install Module-A but that module depends on Module-B I would name the modules like this: 1.Module-B and the one that needs to be installed after that I name 2.Module-A
You can only use that method of bulk installations during an upgrade. After the upgrade, that feature is deleted by DNN itself for security reasons.
On a production website that's not undergoing an upgrade, you can do a bulk installation of extensions using PolyDeploy.

I've read a little bit about PolyDeploy, but haven't used it yet for deploying modules, thank you for this suggestion. I will try if PolyDeploy will solve this issue we are currently having.
