Hi,

I have just installed Joomla 1.0.3 and whenever I try and install any CMT it is coming up with the folowing error:

Code:
Unrecoverable error "PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10)"


I thought it may be something to do with the version of Joomla, but when I have checked my other installations of Joomla and Mambo they are all now coming up with the same error, they were all working perfectly yesterday so I don't think it has anything to do with the new install.

I have tried unzipping a file using the command line and everything works fine!

Anyone got any ideas what could be going wrong?

Thanks

Mike

Did you have a server upgrade?
The server may have new libraries which are causing the problem.

Hi kenmcd,

Nope, no changes to the server since yesterday :(

What are the components you are trying to install?
Where did you download?

I have tried loads of different ones, including ones that I have successfully installed on previous installations.

I think it must be a problem with one of the libraries, because the error is now server wide on all installations, but I don't know enough about it to know how to test it.

Hi,

I have solved the problem!

Yesterday I added an entry to my php.conf file, I was having some problems with file uploads

I thought I had found a solutions here http://uk.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php#43372 so added the folowing code to my php.conf file.

Code:
<Files *.php>
  SetOutputFilter PHP
  SetInputFilter PHP
  LimitRequestBody 524288 (max size in bytes)
</Files>


I took it out and the uploads now work fine :)

Good to hear you got it working.

Regarding the file uploads - having a problem with uploading big files?
This is helpful (from the DocMan web site):
