I have problem installing zenoss zenpacks on my zenoss core 4.2.5. As I know there are two ways of installing zenpacks: 1) via WebGUI, 2) via CLI. I tested the first method by downloading several zenpacks(.man extensions) and installing them, but I received the error "failed to install zenpack ... , check log file...".
in order to test the second method of installing zenpacks, I know that I should have .egg files and enter some commands. unfortunately I couldn't know where I can find .egg files. Also I'm not sure that what exactly should I do after having related .egg files.
guide me please.

Let me check:
1.) Wiki
http://wiki.zenoss.org/ZenPack:Cisco_Environmental_Monitor_%28NWN%29
-> no download link - probably some zenpack wiki properties for auto egg build are missing
=> no problem, because there source Github link is provided

2.) Github
https://github.com/NWNCorp/ZenPacks.community.CiscoEnvmonE
You can clone this repo and install it in developer mode -> http://community.zenoss.org/docs/DOC-2935 section 2.1 zenpack --link --install
Or hold on, there is dist folder, where egg file is exported for you https://github.com/NWNCorp/ZenPacks.community.CiscoEnvmonE/tree/master/dist
