Template install problem

  • Template install problem

    Posted 14 years 3 months ago
    • Hey

      I am wanting to install a Rocket template and as I always do, I am in Joomla 1.5 backend > extensions > install/uninstall > upload package file and selected the unzipped folder from my desktop, clicked open

      Now here is where my problem is

      Rather then the file now being in Joomla for upload and install, the file simply opens and shows all files on my pc (admin, cache etc).

      Tried this both in Linux (Firefox) and in windows (Firefox)

      What am i doing wrong here

      Thanks

    • "selected the unzipped folder from my desktop, clicked open"

      If you are just installing the template then you shouldn't unzip anything. Just select the original zip-file and hit the upload/install button.

    • You can always try the install from directory or URL options.
