I have added 1 Element File for CustomRibbon Button.

And added 1 Feature to deploy this RibbonButton.

When I deploy this, it deploys and Feature is Activated but not displaying the Button in ListRibbon. I don't know what is the problem ?

But when I write ElementFile Location="Ribbon.xml in ElementManifests tag of Feature it gives me an error while deploying.

Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': Error: Cannot find this file specified in the manifest file:MyProject_MyRibbon\Ribbon.xml

My Element.xml file is as under: 

<CustomAction
  Id="{E538E8C7-65DA-454E-AD87-4A603B6CC679}"
  RegistrationId="100"
  RegistrationType="List"
  Location="CommandUI.Ribbon"
  Sequence="5"
  Title="My Custom-Ribbon" >

    <CommandUIExtension xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
        <CommandUIDefinitions>
            <CommandUIDefinition Location="Ribbon.List.Settings.Controls._children">
                <Button
                    Id="{C3842C6A-B15D-44EF-94A4-2137E74A8701}"
                    Alt="My Custom Ribbon"
                    Sequence="5"
                    Command="{A9AF0088-FE1C-4EA2-9E94-FDF02E101D4C}"
                    Image32by32="_layouts/Images/Test/ABC.jpg"
                    Image16by16="_layouts/Images/Test/ABC.jpg"
                    LabelText="My CustomRibbon"
                    TemplateAlias="o1" />
            </CommandUIDefinition>
        </CommandUIDefinitions>

        <CommandUIHandlers>
            <CommandUIHandler
              Command="{A9AF0088-FE1C-4EA2-9E94-FDF02E101D4C}"
              CommandAction="javascript:alert('SharePoint 2010 Rocks!');" />
        </CommandUIHandlers>

    </CommandUIExtension>
</CustomAction>

Open the feature that includes the project item and expand the files node on the project item to verify the files that are included with the item. I suspect that your elements file will not be displayed. You need open the properties for the elements file (open the file and click F4), and make sure that the type on the file is set to "ElementManifest". Also, Change .WSP to .Cab and look inside" because it would be very helpful!
