Hi,

Just decided that Corporate 2 will be the basis of a new website.... but having problems uploading it to Joomla.

Joomla v 2.5.4.

When I use the Extension Manager Upload/Install to install the zip file I get ' Unable to Open Archive' report.

In the Warnings section I have - 'The PHP temporary directory is the directory that PHP uses to store an uploaded file before Joomla! can access this file. Whilst the directory not being set isn't always a problem, if you are having issues with manifest files not being detected or uploaded files not being detected, setting this in your php.ini file might fix the issue.'

HOWEVER.... I have come across this with other templates, but have also been able to upload other templates with no problem: My host assures me that there is no problem with the set up their end, and the Upload Max size of file is 8Mb so that shouldnt be a problem...

Can someone help me with whatever is preventing me getting going on this please?

TIA

Jon

Revise request... I can see the zip folder in the tmp folder on the server... so its uploaded ok... Its just the installation that isnt working????

I have tried installing from URL but got the same 'Cannot open archive' message

Issue resolved... Disappointed not to have received any interest whatsoever from support which is sold as being 24/7
