Hi Folks,
i installed a SMF 2.0.2 but i dont get it with the mods.
I doesnt matter what i try.
I set it up create a tmp and temp folder and i set all folders and fiels chmod 777 ( for test)
but everytime a mod must change or replace a file i become errors.
some times when i try to install a mod it says it cant because it cant overwrite some files.
The Problem all files are 777 and its a fresh install (no themes no post nothing).
So the big question why i got these errors?
so i also tried 7 other mods all with the same errors and all for 2.0.2
with hope for help +DS_DV+
PS: sorry for my english i'm not a native speaker :(
Welcome to SMF!
Do note we have language specific support boards just for that reason :). http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?board=12.0
If you do wish to continue seeking assistance in English let me know and I will be more than happy to help.
your host may have the file ownership settings screed up or may be running mod_security.

PS here is the correct error:
"You cannot download or install new packages because the Packages directory or one of the files in it are not writable!"
Just to confirm
Packages and Packages/temp are both 775 or 777?

yes of course :D
as for checking on the chown and mod_security -- you have to ask your host.
