Title: install (?) error
Post by: rrijken1973 on March 07, 2012, 03:41:53 AM
Have a complete new install of Joomla 2.5.2 and tried to install Virtuemart 2.0.2. Tried the automatic install but it gives me a 500 server error so tried the manual way. Uploaded the core package to the server and did:

administrator/index.php?option=com_virtuemart

Virtuemart control panel shows but a red bar under the titlebar:

Error loading component: com_virtuemart, 1

Have not installed the other package yet (how the manual way?)

The Virtuemart control panel shows there is a new version available though (2.0.2), so which did I download? Clicking it gives me the following errors after some time:

        Error loading component: com_virtuemart, 1
        Error loading component: com_virtuemart, 1
        JFTP: :mkdir: Bad response
        Unable to create destination
        Extracting the update package failed. Please try updating the extension manually.
        Error loading component: com_virtuemart, 1


Help is appreciated!

You must install using Joomla's module manager. http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=99127.0
