No configuration file found and no installation code available. Exiting...
I've searched the site and other information outside RT. Some suggest to change the config file (doesn't work). I would MUCH prefer to go this route rather than installing the crystalline file then all the support modules, etc. which is basically what's suggested as a last resort.
It's a clean install (each of 3x) and followed all the instructions to a T. Even when I try to go directly to admin I get this message
t-cmfg.com/2011joomla/installation/index.php
, which of course isn't there.
path : t-cmfg.com/2011joomla/
any help would be great. I'm so close to completing this I can taste it.
I managed to unzip the file directly onto the server as suggested.
Same results.
What's strange since the beginning is that I have to try multiple times to delete the installation files. After about 10-15 delete commands, it does delete though.
I will PM you. Thanks for the help.
For other's information : I found that using GoDaddy (in this case) resident FTP program will allow you unzip the file on the server (look at the top for unzip icon). I did this because for some reason I wasn't able to change permissions on an .php file (or any file) that I was going to use to unzip the file.
yeah GoDaddy is known for having issues. The site is backup now. The configuration.php file was missing. I took this file configuration.php-dist added the necessary DB and site information and now it works. You do seem to have a permission issue still. Log into the back end and enable the FTP layer and add the FTP login info (in the global configuration > Server)
Thanks. I do see it up and running. Will what you explained above take care of the error messages above the header?

I'm VERY VERY happy to report I'm up and running. It was a permissions issue. I noticed in the gantry file that nothing was allow to write to the file.
In GoDaddy I went to resident FTP program and enabled 'write' to the joomla directory.
All seems well now.
Thanks to the cdavis for excellent work. I'm going home for a few beers now.
Beautiful!
