Description:
When installing Artio Joom SEF component, installer is unable to complete clean install as it does in legacy versions of Joomla. The following errors occur:

Warning: rename(/var/www/website/administrator/components/com_sef/bots/joomsef_metabot.php,/var/www/website/mambots/system/joomsef_metabot.php) [function.rename]: Permission denied in /var/www/jungleroots/administrator/components/com_sef/install.sef.php on line 32

Warning: rename(/var/www/website/administrator/components/com_sef/bots/joomsef_metabot.xml.tmp,/var/www/website/mambots/system/joomsef_metabot.xml) [function.rename]: Permission denied in /var/www/jungleroots/administrator/components/com_sef/install.sef.php on line 33

I resolved the issue by doing the file move/copies myself. The target directories did not exist. I'm not sure why this code would work on legacy and not Joomla 1.5 Rc2. I do have the legacy plugin installed.
