    You just get a message:
    The plugin does not have a valid header.
    Shucks!

    The upgrade failed with 2.8, so I removed the directory, attempted a new install and I get this error too. It doesn't even show up in the list of installed plugins.

    I had the same issue... It's because the plugin is packaged 2 folders deep. Browse out to the wp-content\plugins folder, drill down one level into the amazon showcase plugin, and copy and past the amazonshowcase folder to the wp-content\plugins directory.

    Wow. I'm embarrassed to admit that this fixed it for me! THANK YOU!
