Install Error

I've come back to CB now that 1.2 is released and installed it as per instructions, unfortunately I get this warning.

Installer - Error
Uncompressing /var/www/vhosts/mydomain.co.uk/httpdocs/administrator/components/com_comprofiler/pluginsfiles.tgz failed.
[ Continue ... ]



I went into tools and fixed all databases but still no good, any ideas?

I'm prepared to completely delete the database files if necessary, but some guidance would be appreciated. The db files are a relic from a former 1.1 CB but the database went wrong for me ages ago and I've since moved the whole site to a plesk based system and migrated to Joomla 1.5 I'm guessing everything is all messed up so need to start again from scratch.

All my db files begin with prefix_comprofiler etc. Can I delete these without upsetting anything else?

I really want to get CB back up and running but it isn't playing ball at the moment.

To start from scrathc you need to remove cb component and modules and drop all tables with the word comprofiler in their name.

I'm assuming this won't screw anything else up, this is a live site.

I've 'dropped' all the myprefix_comprofiler files and started again but still get the same warning. For reasons beyond my knowledge the pluginsfiles isn't unzipping.

Ask your hoster about files ownership and permissions...hope he knows about it, since it seems not configured fine... ;)
