Having problems with the package manager?

Most likely, your free host installs SMF for you and at the same time (or shortly thereafter) modifies it via a script to remove "unwanted" features, like Package Manager.

I'm guessing it is more like one of those multi-forum scripts that some free hosts are running. One install of SMF for all the sites, so things like packages are removed because it would affect all sites.

ULTRA-LOL
Do we see something like this in SMF 2.0 ?

At servage there is no SSH and according to one person "No secure shell (SSH). This means you can't directly run installation and patching scripts, search files, add PHP plugins, zip up whole directories or copy them to another server"
could this be the cause of all the problems? I have tried everything I can to get mine to work and nada.
Though I have givin up on using SMF, I thought this might help

First of all, can you point us at the exact problems you had? Who knows, we might solve them and get you back to SMF :D
SSH access is not necessary. You might have to ask your host to chown SMF files for you once, but after that it shouldn't be a problem.

Hi Sarge, thanks for the reply,
I haven't tried to set up in a couple of months now, so I can't remember the details. It was the infamous Modification Parse Error thing, and it was a fresh install (tried using both the set up script from servage and setting it all up manually.)
I tried multiple fixes but nothing worked, If you'd like I'll set it all up fresh again just as a learning experience. Just let me know if you'd like me to do so.
Honestly I've gone with elgg as my sites backend, but still love the idea of using SMF as my forum, especially if I can get it integrated with elgg
