Issue Summary

Hi all,

trying to create a subtheme via drush:

drush zen "mxtzen"

I receive the following error:

[error] Command zen needs the following module(s) enabled to run: zen.
The drush command 'zen mxtzen' could not be executed.

Trying to enable zen theme first, but always receveing the same error, and my subtheme is not created.

I was having the same problem but got it to work like this:

Update to the latest drush release. I keep drush in a git repo and just pulled and got the latest updates, cleared cache on my local site and in drush and it works now.

I was getting the same problem so I updated drush using, pear upgrade drush/drush
All is good:
upgrade ok: channel://pear.drush.org/drush-5.4.0
Now when I run try to create a subtheme I get the following:

/var/www/drupal/site/default/$ drush zen "asubtheme"
drush: The directory "/var/www//STARTERKIT" was not found.
Drush command terminated abnormally due to an unrecoverable error.

Hey, maybe we need to make this a documentation issue.

If you've just downloaded Zen, you don't need to enable it, so there's nothing going to clear the cache for you.
