Please help guys.. I have wasted HOURS on this and trying everything on the forums.. I am at my witts end.....
Update problems are almost always related to a lack of PHP resources on a shared server.
The issue with components menu - see http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=101120.msg336461#msg336461
Can anyone help.
I cannot even update or reinstall virtuemart. I can install other components just not virtuemart.
Please help

For many people having installation issues related to server upload_max_filesize being set too low, installing the tar.gz file packages rather than the .zip packages usually works.
