I get the same error when installing mods

1.     Execute Modification     install-2.0.beta2.xml     Modification parse error
2.    Execute Modification                                  -    Modification parse error

Why is this happening and how can I fix it.

What modification are you trying to install?

Are you installing SMF 2.0 compatible mods, or are you installing 1.x mods? Are your settings in the Package Manager configured correctly?

I'm installing 2.0 mods and what settings on package manager?

its file permissions.  its not being allowed to unzip the mod file. create a folder called temp and chmod it to be writable.

So I have to do that for all of the mods. That sucks.

well, first you should see if it resolves the overall problem?  did it?

if so, there is a mod (yes, irony i know) to prevent the need to do that
