Huh...that's interesting...

Apparently the problem solved itself. I just went back and in my frustration, tapped "install" once more...

Just like that, it worked...

Damn gremlins.

You can try creating a folder called temp inside Packages and chmod it to 777.

That's what fixed it for me.

"You can try creating a folder called temp inside Packages and chmod it to 777."

So, what are the odds of SMF 1.1RC2 having the temp folder already in the Packages folder?

Dannii

It's a temp folder, it's not supposed to be kept. So I doubt it's likely

Like eldacar stated it's a temp folder.  The folder gets created automatically by when when applying a mod and deleted automatically after its completed.  The problem is that some hosts disallow the creation of directories and causes the issue of not being able to write/create folder.

Well, I can create directories all day long...

Sometimes it installs the mods correctly, sometimes I have to add the temp folder...

Go figure...

Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.

I've overwritten all (1.0.5 -> 1.1).... I don't know what happen?

I'm trying to use the Package manager to install SMFShop, but whenever I run it, I get something like this at the bottom:

Some of the files this package needs to modify are not writable. This needs to be changed by logging into FTP and chmoding the files.

So I enter in my FTP info, and when I click proceed, it returns me to the exact same page, with no changes.

I'm stuck at what to do. :-\

Dannii

Well you have a few failures as well, so you don't want to install. Which version of SMF is it, and what other mods do you have installed?
"Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise."

Blackstone

I have no other mods installed, and my version is 1.0.5.

Dannii

"Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise."

Blackstone

They should be. I just installed the forum.

Dannii

I just noticed that there are two downloads for the shop mod, one for 1.0.5 and one for 1.1. You downloaded the correct one? If so I really don't know how to help, so I suggest posting in the topic for the shop mod.
"Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise."

Blackstone

That was my problem. So that fixed the failures, but now when I enter my FTP info and hit proceed, it still returns to that same page, exactly the same.

Check the permissions of the subs-boards.php file and make sure it's CHMOD 777. Then it won't return the failure message, and it will install properly.

Blackstone

Well, I've got it so it isn't returning any failures, but now it just gives me this:

And when I enter my FTP info and hit proceed, it returns me to the same page, the mod not installed.

Oldiesmann

When you enter your FTP info, make sure the path is correct.

Blackstone

Okay, how would the path be entered?

Should it be when I log into the FTP, the name of the files I click on to get to the forum, seperated by a slash?

Blackstone

Ugh, nevermind. I got it!

Thank you all for all your help!
