I have a fresh install of v.1.0.2 at the root level. The server is a virtual dedicated server running Linux. I have set permissions on the modules directory to 777 as well as the config.php file. When I try to install a module with module manager, I get this error:

Error!

Could not create a file (permissions problem?) /var/www/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs/modules/Album/templates/templatelist.tpl

Any thoughts?

No thoughts from anyone?

and what does server log say?

Have you tried going to Site Admin » Global Settings and changing the File Creation Mask (umask): by just deleting the 022 out of that box?

Mark,
I changed the File Creation Mask (umask): setting to 0 and tried installing a module again...same thing. I looked at the modules directory and a new folder for the new module was created with CHMOD 775 and was empty. I also tried installing via the xml method...same result.

Is this a server setting problem? Server logs do not reveal anything other that just stopping.

Thanks for your help.

Robert

Robert,

I had the same thing with the Calender module. Who is the user/owner of the directories and files on the server? The way it was solved can befound in this thread:

Good luck,

Thank you for the posts. I resolved this issue for me (I hope). My problem was with my server having safe_mode turned on. When this server setting was set to off, everything works like a champ.

If anyone sees any problems or risks with doing this I would like to know.
