Hey.

Well, I still don't have any solution to this strange problem.
I have the same problem here as nicofrench, but there he is oviously not here anymore.

my host has changed and chmoded the Session save path to point to /tmp.
The installer still reads unwriteable.

AND I STILL CAN NOT INSTALL COMPROFILER.ZIP

please help!

Hosters can enable a "SafeMode" for PHP, which disallows file creation by PHP, among other things.

You can check this under System status in backend.

- You either have your host enable safe-mode (recommended), or
- Wait for joomla 1.5 (including an official FTP installer)
- Apply SafeMode patch to joomla 1.0.x: http://developer.joomla.org/sf/sfmain/do/viewProject/projects.safejoomla (no guarrantees), which will do the file creations using FTP !

Please not that CB can be installed using this patch, but that it does not apply to CB-plugins installation.

thanks for reply.

my host said he doesn't want safemode=off for security reasons.

Maybe i'll try this patch. Later, now I have "installed" CB dumping the db from my local server on the public one. Hope everything 'll work...

But do you think other functionality of CB/joomla is going to be reduced with safe mode ON?

Well, safeMode has a good marketing name, but that's almost all about it...

Yes, there are couple of things which are reduced in the backend mainly:
- media manager
- installing CB plugins
- and a few others. I chose my hosters to allow safeMode, so maybe somebody can reply better than me

I've still a hope to make the FTP installer of Joomla! 1.5 work for CB-plugins, with the corrections/changes we are doing in Joomla! 1.5 with the core devs. More on this subject later this week.

I ran into this today because my group was set in a way that Apache could not write to the path. After changing ownership to the group that apache belongs to, it worked fine.

chown group:user /path
