Once I fixed my mistake, I used the Xiphos Module Manager to install from a local folder. I pointed it to the folder containing my mods.d and modules folders and it installed correctly this time. (This is where I would have expected some helpful error message previously when the conf file had a mistake.)

So if I want to distribute the compressed module from my own server, I simply copy those two folders (mods.d and modules) to the correct server location? Or do I have to zip them like Nic's diagram implied?

I expect you would have told me if this is the wrong place to ask these kinds of questions???

Thanks for your patience,
Robert.

Well, in your case it is neither.  You manually installed the module.
The auto installer in SWORD to which Matthew is referring will install
from one local repository to another or from a remote repository to
another, but you didn't use the installer to do any of this.  You copied
the files in place manually-- which is necessary for module create.  Now
you can install FROM that location on another computer or if you point
an FTP server to that location you call allow other to install FROM that
location to their computer over the internet.

Is it Sword code or Xiphos code that does the actual installation?
Sword.
