[HELP] E:Error when flashing ROM

I'm a new developer and I am trying to release my next update for the Droid X2 MinimalX. Everything is built and should be, to my knowledge, functioning flawlessly.
When trying to flash the ROM, I run into this error:
Code:
E:Error in /emmc/...[rom name]
(status 6)
I've had this problem previously, and fixed it by correcting issues in my updater-script, but here, I cannot find where the error is occurring.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Streamline /data for System app symlinks

I just wanted to point something out now that there are quite a few different roms using larger then normal system partitions and offloading that data onto the data partition with symlinks. Here is only three examples:
Kingdom Rewind:
Code:
ui_print("Writing System...");
mount("MTD", "system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
symlink("/data/Rewind-System/system.app", "/system/app");
Kinged Kingdom and HateSLINGER:
Code:
ui_print("Writing System...");
mount("MTD", "system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
symlink("/data/King-System/system.app", "/system/app");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/data/King-System/system.app");
Synergy Nightly:
Code:
ui_print("Writing System...");
mount("MTD", "system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
symlink("/data/Synergy-System/system.app", "/system/app");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/data/Synergy-System/system.app");
Doing this is only making it more difficult for mods/themes/kernels. How about doing something more productive?
Code:
symlink("/data/Data-System/system.app", "/system/app");
If every Rom mod used a more universal system this would make it easier for updates/themes/mods/kernels to be used on these new and larger rom. Making less work and creating more productivity when working on things.
I get that its your rom, but does everyones symlinks need to be different? Now, since I started working on a kernel, I have to create an update.zip for each specific rom. Let's work together as a community and streamline this.

Amen, it would be nice. Not that I'm a dev or anything but what makes one devs life easier would obviously make others as well....

3 things...
1st.. root explorer is a wares if it is included in zip...
Seems you are adding your own.. so I wont talk about it..
2nd.. you have to mount system partition before flashing this zip file.. as you don't have mount command in script..
3rd.. are you sure you have Rex.apk file inside system folder in zip file? If not it won't work..
Also you need to use set permission command to set 644 on app...

every permissions line, you have an extra " right before the first 0
they should look like:
Code:
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/system.su.d/50V4a");
You have:

set_perm("0, 0, 0777, "/system.su.d/50V4a");

Make sure that "data", "2.3.4.0", "2.5.0.5", and "system" directories are right in the root of your zip.

It worked man, thanks a ton. Gonna finish editing it a bit and upload
How do I change the splash image? I've tried twice, I keep the same name as yours. I thought it was the file type so I made sure to use PNG and still just a black screen.
