I am having all sorts of problems installing the K2 component with Joomla 2.5.

If I do a regular install, I get the message:

JFolder::create: could not create directory

even though all my folder permissions are ok.

If I try to Install from a Directory I get:

JInstaller::install: Cannot find XML setup file

I searched the structure of K2 and it does not have a setup.xml file.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

  • go to your Joomla backend and then go to `Help >> System Information >> Directory Permissions` and make sure all the folder mentioned are "writable" – Lodder Jul 24 '12 at 03:20
  • May I also add that I had this problem once and it may be due to the fact that your FTP account doesn't have ownership of the directories, even though they are set o 777 – Lodder Jul 24 '12 at 03:34

It sounds like you have a server configuration issue. You will most likely need to enable the FTP layer to get it to work. If I were you I would switch to a host that specializes in Joomla like Rochen.
