Failed to move file during Install was created by strngr12
Sorry, don't know where to put this so I'm hoping this is the right place. I'm a novice at Joomla and I just downloaded this extension so please bare with me. I'm having problems trying to install this extension. On the first step in the install tab in the Joomla admin panel I select the com_comprofiler.zip file from my local Mac hard drive and when I hit "upload file and install" I get a Warning! Failed to move file" error. Any help, please? Also, if this is the wrong place to ask, can you direct me to where I should post this? Thanks!:)

EDIT BY MOD: Changed title for more appropriate description of error.

Make sure you meet the minimum requirements. You can check your setup under Help/System Info. Check that you're installing through Joomla's Install/Uninstall; not CB's plugin manager. If all this is correct, it looks like a file access problem. In Help/System Info, make sure all directories are writable.

If you're still having problems, you might be able to do an Expert Install (in the installation instructions).

That did it, thanks. The directories weren't writable.
