    JFolder::create: Could not create directory

    Posted 13 years 3 months ago
    • Hello.
      I designed my Joomla 1.5 Website offline (localhost) and then uploaded it online to my Hosting Space. It has been functioning so well; but as I try to install a new extension (module, plugin, or component), I only receive an Error Message as below: (Can anybody explain what is wrong and What the Solution is?)

      JFolder::create: Could not create directory
      Module Install: Failed to create directory.: "D:\inetpub\vhosts\zoomauthors.org\httpdocs\modules\mod_spo"


      Thanks in advance.

    • sounds like your permissions may out of whack. If you go to Help - system info - Directory Permissions and see if those are all green.
    • Send moderators PMs ONLY if they request it.

    • Thanks for the reply Sir. I now see that the issue concerns Folder and File Permissions.
      How do I turn all the "reds" to "greens"? For instance, I have the following display:

      Log Directory ($log_path) /home/palmgarden/httpdocs/logs/ Unwritable
      Temp Directory ($tmp_path) /home/palmgarden/httpdocs/tmp/ Unwritable

      What should I do to have them "Writable"?

    • Greetings Sir.
      It was marvelous to discover how to go about establishing Directory Permissions; and understanding what it's all about. Incredible that it was this simple.

      Thanks J!eremy
