Cannot install mod packages???

[Gryzor]

Duh. No. (/me bangs head against nearest wall).

Ok, just did. I get two errors repeated over and over with minor variations:

http://www.cpcwiki.com/forum/index.php?action=admin;area=packages;sa=install;package=ajax_quick_reply.1.0.2.tar.gz

2: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource

File: /var/www/vhosts/cpcwiki.com/httpdocs/forum/Sources/Subs-Package.php
Line: 2424

and

http://www.cpcwiki.com/forum/index.php?action=admin;area=packages;sa=install;package=ajax_quick_reply.1.0.2.tar.gz

2: fopen(/var/www/vhosts/cpcwiki.com/httpdocs/forum/Themes/classic/Display.template.php) [<a href='function.fopen'>function.fopen</a>]: failed to open stream: Permission denied

File: /var/www/vhosts/cpcwiki.com/httpdocs/forum/Sources/Subs-Package.php

Now, there might be something there. I have set up my server so that it only accepts ftp connections from within a VPN (had to do that because of ftp  DoS attacks). However, I guess this wouldn't include services running on the machine itself, such as the forum scripts that reside, de facto, within the VPN...

And even so, why does the system report that the installation was successful?

I'll try to install manually and see what happens. Is there any mod that requires minimal changes that I can quickly test?

Anyone?

Gryzor, have you tried using cpanel to manually set your Packages directory and any other directories edited by the mod to 777?
You don't have to leave them 777 but it may help with installation. I've seen something similar on my server with another mod and it was due to server config. Setting 777 before trying to install helped the situation.
