Greetings all,

I hope someone to help with this problem, which is:

happens when I try to install, Module, Template or plugings,

It always gives me access denied ERROR:

Errors like this This is installing a Template
* JFile:: write (/ home/njcastillo/domains/tecnologialibre.net/public_html/joomla16/tmp/install_4d363379a9e78/Tecnologialibre01/images/nav.png): fopen (/ home/njcastillo/domains/tecnologialibre.net/public_html/joomla16 / tmp/install_4d363379a9e78/Tecnologialibre01/images/nav.png) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied
* Unable to write entry

This happens to me with anything I wanted to install additional Joomla 1.6
The main error is ([function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied)
That apparently is PHP. or a bug of Joomla 1.6

I'm actually looking on the internet about this error and it seems that is something that has to do with PHP.

If anyone can help me with this case, please.

NOTE:
This is not about Joomla 1.5.22, I do not step Joomla 1.6 RC1, now the official stable version is that I pass this error.

Thanks in advance to all

It looks like your tmp file does not have the correct permissions. Inside your administration panels go to Site>System Information>Directory Permissions and see what it says. You will need to change them on your server. Your ftp program usually has this ability. You need to make the tmp directory writable, in this case: / home/njcastillo/domains/tecnologialibre.net/public_html/joomla16/tmp

Also make sure the extensions you are trying to install are compatible with 1.6. Most of the extensions available are not yet made for 1.6.

I also just noticed a space in the path. You may have simply added a space in between / and home in your path in configuration.php file. "/ home" is very different from "/home" and the server wont be able to find the files properly. If the above post didn't fix the issue this may be it.

Thank you very much for answering,
Indeed, I've tried to chmod 777 and chmod 775

But do not let me write, as I said, with Joomla 1.6 RC1 version I passed it.
I am also sure I'm installing the module support for Joomla 1.6 thong
I have Joomla 1.5 and this does not pass this error,

I've tried everything

I have a similar problem. Something seems to be wrong with the file libraries/joomla/filestream/archive/zip.php

The problem is partly solved by replacing the zip.php file with the Joomla 1.5 version, though it does not work when you use language packs. You may try to use the version of Joomla 1.6 RC1 (I cannot try this because I do not have this version).

I'm having the same problem over here. I'm running roughly 30 joomla sites on the same server. All sites have the same dir settings. Joomla 1.5.22 works brilliantly but Joomla 1.6 refuses to install any addons due to this error
Code:
JFile: :write(/myuserdirectorypath/public_html/tmp/install_4d36dc92aeb6d/apple_touch_icon.png): fopen(/myuserdirectorypath/public_html/tmp/install_4d36dc92aeb6d/apple_touch_icon.png) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied
* Unable to write entry]

Here I am for example installing a template onto a site which has the whole dir structure chmoded to 775, running on a centos server. Any ideas?

Since Joomla 1.6 released I've had this problem apparently is a bug of Joomla 1.6 stable, now with Joomla 1.6 RC1 and Joomla 1.5.22 does not pass this, hope someone help us or wait to correct this problem in future Joomla release 1.6.01

Greetings to all

The problem is related to PHP, as seen here:
Code:
[function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied

http://php.net/manual/es/function.fopen.php

Now I repeat, everything seems to be a bug of Joomla 1.6 version and some operating systems such as Red Hat distributions (Fedora, CentOS, etc.)

My Joomla runs on FreeBSD. Maybe this helps one of the experts. Can you please let us know on which OS you run?

(Joomla 1.6 has a system info menu on the Site menu item that displays this information.

Same problem on our test-site, the solution mentioned by RudolfJan works, so the problem is somewhere within the 1.6 release version of the zip.php file itself, this will probably be fixed by joomla staff for 1.6.01 soon. Until then run a neutral language site and use an old zip.php file.

Here's a work-around that proves this is a permission issue bug (and probably in the zip.php file coding from the above I suspect). I was successful in installing a template doing the following. First I wanted to install yoo_noble_j16.tar, the YooTheme template.

1. In the tmp folder in the installed Joomla folder, I created the folder yoo_noble_j16.
2. Chmod the permissions for the yoo_noble_j16 folder to 755 (chmod 775 yoo_noble_j16).
3. Ftp'd the yoo_noble_j16.tar directly inside the yoo_noble_j16 folder.
4. Via the command line (with super user privileges) from within that yoo_noble_j16 folder, I executed this: tar -xzvf ./yoo_noble_j16.tar
5. Now back in the Joomla administration interface for my site, in the Extension Manager: Install page, I then use the Install From Directory option to install the template.
There were no errors.

You should read other contributions on this topic for a workaround.

There's an issue reported on the JoomlaCode website (http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla ... m_id=24517) where the issue is described. It has been confirmed but no action has been taken yet.

Joomla 1.6.0 and 1.6.1

\libraries\joomla\filesystem\archive\zip.php
Line 252 >> action delete: , true

Line 252 - zip.php, not working version -
if (JFile::write($destination.DS.zip_entry_name($file), $buffer, true) === false) {

Line 252 - zip.php update, working version -
if (JFile::write($destination.DS.zip_entry_name($file), $buffer) === false) {


This should solve the problem!
