I have problem with package manager.
I set ftp parameters and after press connect the page return without password.

Is there any help?

Upload and run repair_settings.php. Click on the little blue "Recommended" links in the Paths & URLs section and click the Save button.

If you still have problems, upload and run fix_ownership.php attached to the first post of this topic. This script will attempt to fix the path used by Package Manager.

neotan, read my previous post.

Sarge, not sure which post you are referring to. Managed to fix this. Apparently, PM is unforgiving if other file formats (other than .zip ) are on the /Packages directory. I removed the file and it's ok now

Hi,

I'm having problems with the package manager and hoping someone can help me.  I've tried the fix_ownership and repair_settings and it still doesn't work...I have about 4 packages just sitting there ready to apply and it doesn't do anything after I put in the ftp info :(

stacy, I had that problem (nothing happening) until I got the correct paths set in the ftp settings -- be sure you are using correct path and ftp server information.

My problem is that I am able to upload a new package but UNABLE to install it? I have also run the fix_ownership and repair_settings to no avail :(   I uploaded a package, which then shows the option to install. When I click there I get this error:

You cannot download or install new packages because the Packages directory or one of the files in it are not writable!

Despite the fact that packages dir is 777

aly, create a directory inside the packages directory named temp and chmod it to 777 and try again.

Dear SMF community members,

I think this topic has grown too big. It's become increasingly harder to find solutions to specific issues. Package Manager is a very powerful feature of SMF, but also one that seems to be affected often by unusual server/account configurations and other stuff.

Quite a few errors, situations and available solutions have been mentioned here. To make support easier, less confusing and more effective, I'm locking this topic. Please search here and in other topics when you experience an issue related to Package Manager; if you still can't find a solution, start a new topic in the appropriate board (for SMF 1.x or 2.0) and we'll do our best to help you.

Thank you!

I doubt it, otherwise it probably wouldn't have been locked...
