Hi, I cannot convince Joomla/rt-quasar-1.5 template that the permissions on /tmp and /log are RWX.
I've set them on the site and have uploaded items into them as a test - but, try to install mod_xmlswf_carouselslideshow and it fails with errors, every time JFTP::mkdir:Bad response, JFTP::chmod:Bad response, JFTP::store:Bad response, Warning, failed to move file.
Look at System info, all folders writable EXCEPT /tmp and /log.
I'm going nuts! any ideas?

hi there,
you could try the akeeba admin tools to set permissions properly or check with your host if they can give you some support with this.

JFTP::read: unable to open file, Warning! failed to move file, Error: unable to upload file. The folder I'm trying to upload into is set as rwx. However I CAN upload the file using SmartFTP into the same folder .. is it just me?

Thanks Kat - is that the akeeba admin module?I have checked with my host - they confirm that both directories ARE rwx .. could it be a template fault?
PS: Needless to say, I have the same errors trying to install akeeba :shock:

- Sounds like more of an FTP problem rather than permissions. Do you have FTP enabled within the configuration? And web services enabled?

You might find this interesting reading:
docs.joomla.org/Why_can%27t_you_install_any_extensions%3F
You're not with GoDaddy hosting by any chance are you?
Also, it would help to know more about the setup of the server, can you go here and install the files as instructed: forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=428&t=272481 and then post the info here. - CMYKreative : Graphic Design , Web Design , Printing , Banner Ads , Branding and more.

Resetting this in my configuration file resolved the issue.
Again, many thanks :cheesy: :cheesy:

Good to hear you got it sorted.
These 'little' problems always drive us nuts when working on client sites who have their own "top class hosting" lol
