VirtueMart 1.1 revision 921 Complete Package
I installed at two different hosts, and both got the same error message
Quote
Upload component - Upload Error
Failed to move uploaded file to /media directory.
I tried to install it w/ J!1.5, and it also fails.
This is caused by incorrect permissions - probably on your {joomla_root}/tmp directory. I found that I had to make my tmp directory writable. Then it installed fine.
(It installs fine on Joomla 1.0.12, but fails on the latest J! 1.5 (rev. 8752). It is a J! 1.5 problem. Other components fails to install too. But, it only started in more recent versions of J! 1.5.)
Greg
it's weird. I don't even have tmp folder under my joomla root.
Which version of J! 1.5 are you using?
all right ..
there is a tmp folder within J! 1.5. I though you are talking about J 1.0.x
I still can't install even I change the permission to 777 on tmp folder.
I tried to install on J 1.0.13 and still no luck.
Is it something wrong w/ my host?
I have no problem to install 1.0.12 at my J 1.0.13.
Best,
It seems Joomla or host issue, recheck permissions make sure it is 777, which version of J1.5.
J! 1.5 version: 20070905 nightly build
I'll recheck the permission again tomorrow, but how come I can install the old version but not the new one.
BTW, 1.1 is for both 1.0.13 and 1.5, right?

Correct. There is a new build try that.
Not sure if this helps or not - I've had mixed results as follows:
Using J1.5RC2 + VM1.1 (6 Sept 07 build) - with Joomla 1.0 Legacy Mambot enabled
Installing on Linux machine hosted offsite using the following DB=4.1.22-standard, PHP=4.4.7, Web Interface=Apache
- installs correctly and useable. Am testing on this at the moment
Installing on Windows machine hosted locally using the following DB=5.0.16-nt, PHP=5.0.5, Web server= IIS5, Web interface, cgi-fcgi
- Does not install and I get the following messgage:
'There was an error uploading this file to the server.'

In php.ini increase memory / file upload limit to 16MB
Cool - works now. It had to be something simple :)
what's wrong w/ my host?
???
the permission page shows all "writable" except session path.
How can I debug for this?

You are missing 'Session save path = /tmp' you need to contact your host and ask them to add it, by the way who is your host?
well ... can you tell me how to config it if you know how?
It's my testing dev box at a virtual machine.
Thanks for pointing out my problem :D
I will try again at my host machine later of the day if I get a chance.
Which one are you using? In php.ini search for session.save_path and add /tmp to it.
example
session.save_path = "c:/wamp/tmp"
I will try to change the php.ini file tomorrow for local host, but I just gave it a try on my host (lunarpages.com) w/
6 Septembert, 2007 build & 1.0.13 version. I still get the same error message. ???

I changed according to your suggestion but I still get the same error.
This is my localhost.
I also tried the lunarpages' host, and I got the same error too.
Can I install manually?

There must be something wrong with your setup, I installed on dreamhost, hostpc and two locals using wampserver and wos II no problems.
Make sure folders are write able and CHMOD 777, if all is correct and still can't install than I have no idea.
I am still not sure what happen; however, I tried to install from local drive instead of upload the file, and it works.
We can close this "under review" issue although I am still don't know what happen.
Thanks for all response.
Time to try 1.1.x
