Bug? Can't install lang, packages chmod=777

[spaceone]

Hi,

I have a problem with installing packages and languages.
I use the SMF 2.0 RC4.
My Webserver is Apache.
allow_url_fopen is on

I have set chmod 777 to all files and directories (with filezilla)....
in packagemanager -> file permissions : all files are writeable
i can't change the file permissions with the ftp-tool from SMF, i don't know why, no errors...
in the error logs are 26 entries -> but only 2 different:
( Undefined variable: modSettings in my current language file )
Undefined variable: package_ftp in Themes/default/GenericList.template.php (download_language sub template - eval?)

so when i try to install a package, this error appears:

You cannot download or install new packages because the Packages directory or one of the files in it are not writable!

If i want to install a new language, this appears:

You cannot proceed with the installation until all files selected to be copied are writable.

But SMF shows: all files are writeable

A few month ago, when i used RC3 it works...

What's the problem?
I hope you can help me.

add the folder temp to your packages folder, and ask your host to verify the permissions on your files/folders

Hi there,

I have installed SMF 2.0 RC5. I'm using ngix with php-fpm in an Ubuntu server. I'm having problems installing new languages. I have no message in the smf error log nor in ngix error log. I have changed files permissions to 777 but nothing change. I own the server so I have verified from with a local console. The only message I receive when I try to add new language is

You cannot proceed with the installation until all files selected to be copied are writable.

Any help will be really appreciate
Thanks

You can try to manually download and install the langauge packages you are trying to install
http://download.simplemachines.org/?smflanguages

(just upload each file in that archive to the root of the SMF installation )

It worked, but anyway I would like to fix the former problem, as it also affects to installing mods ...
