I did a fresh joomla install using the rocketlaucher. I uploaded all the files via filezilla and did the joomla installation without problem.
My problem is I cannot install any new components or modules.
I got this error message:
======================================================
Warning! Failed to move file.
Warning: move_uploaded_file(/home/mediamec/public_html/cms/tmp/mod_rokbridge_latest_posts.zip) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/mediamec/public_html/cms/libraries/joomla/filesystem/file.php on line 345
Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/php6Xh0Fd' to '/home/mediamec/public_html/cms/tmp/mod_rokbridge_latest_posts.zip' in /home/mediamec/public_html/cms/libraries/joomla/filesystem/file.php on line 345
I suspect its the permissions for the folders. When I look under help > system info > directory permissions, most are unwriteable except for "tmp"
I know how to set the folder permissions using ftp client, but is unsure of the correct permission to set for each folder (I do not want to set all folders to 777) OR is there a faster method?
I solve the installation problem by doing it manually.
I unzipped the module files and ftp to the tmp folder (mod 777)
I also uploaded the same files to a subfolder in the module folder (temporary set to 777)
Then I do a install from joomla using the tmp folder option.
