can't install

[AshleyNY]

 
ok I have read the installation instructions and the tutorial, however for some reason I cannot get it to install.

I have installed joomla in a dir off root called joomla
and I go to the extension manager and try installing the first zip that came from the original zip file
and I always get
Warning

JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find Joomla XML setup file

any help would be greatly appreciated.  I am looking at this shopping cart to compare with what i am currently using so this way I can set them both up in different dir and see which one I like beter
