Install and Upgrade Help is not the relevant board for this by the way. Anyhow, what is your version of SMF and what does your forum error log say about it? Also check your permissions of packages, is this directory writable?
this is the error in the package manager
1. Execute Modification install2.xml Modification parse error
2. Execute Modification install2.xml Modification parse error
3. Extract File ./PortalStandalone.php
4. Extract Tree ./Sources
5. Extract Tree ./Themes
6. Extract Tree ./Themes/default/languages
7. Extract Tree ./Themes/default/images/sp
8. Extract Tree ./Themes/default/images/admin
9. Extract File ./Themes/default/css/portal.css
10. Extract File ./Themes/default/css/portal_rtl.css
11. Extract File ./Themes/default/scripts/portal.js
12. Adapt Database install2.php
IF I TRY TO FORCE THE INSTALLATION, IT SHOWS A WHITE PAGE AND WONT INSTALL
I have asked about the forum error log. Does your forum have no error log?
you can see it on the first post.
i posted it there from the start
What's the mod your attempting to install?
Is the issue only with this mod, do you have any issues installing other mods?
By design, SMF is programmed to generate a "temp" folder under ./Packages in the SMF directory when you attempt mod installation. This aids package installation as the content of the package is extracted into this temporary directory (./Packages/temp) so the files can be read and the applicable changes applied.
In your case, perhaps due to the server configuration, SMF is unable to generate this directory, hence the modification parse error. In cases like this, you have to manually create the "temp" directory under ./Packages and chmod (How do I chmod? / what is chmod? (http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?topic=477.0)) the folder accordingly.
I should add that the "temp" directory will be deleted upon completion of package installation and would need to be recreated whenever you want to install a package. However, you can install a little hack (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=724) that would slay SMF's ability to do this. Let us know if you require additional assistance :).

Thanks man but that didnt solve it.
Every mod i want to install returns the same error.
globalheaders and footers returned this :
1. Execute Modification globalhf2.xml Modification parse error
2. Execute Modification globalhf2.xml Modification parse error
simple portal returned this :
1. Execute Modification install2.xml Modification parse error
2. Execute Modification install2.xml Modification parse error
ITS Apparently something about .xml
if i try to uninstall a previous installed mod, it returns the same .xml error.
Did you chmod the folder after creating it? You should give it 755, 775 or 777 depending on the server environment. Feel free to send me a temporary administrative account as well as an FTP account to resolve the issue.

sure i am sending the account now.
I have bit similiar problem after upgrading my forum to RC2.
I cannot install any mods via package manager says that my package folder is not writable. I have chmodded all folder into 777 but still I cannot install any mods.
I uploaded mods manually via FTP, but that did no good.
lets hope arantor will helps us out with it.
This has been resolved :).
