Hi Todd,
Source code of fresh Joomla installation has this code for install:
global $mainframe;
$this->setState('action', 'install');
switch(JRequest::getWord('installtype'))
{
case 'folder':
$package =
$this->_getPackageFromFolder();
break;
case 'upload':
$package =
$this->_getPackageFromUpload();
break;
case 'url':
$package =
$this->_getPackageFromUrl();
break;
default:
$this->setState('message', 'No Install Type Found');
return false;
break;
}
// Was the package unpacked?
if (!$package) {
$this->setState('message',
'Unable to find install package');
return false;
}
It is possible that your archive file was too big, so PHP upload limit has
reached and uploaded
File does not exists after upload, it is also possible that your archive is
damaged, you should
Test is archive damaged by opening it and testing from WinRar, third option is
that on your
Hosting PHP does not have allowed zip extension:
PHP.INI file:
[PHP_ZIP]
extension=php_zip.dll
You should upload by ftp to site root attached file and call it from the
browser, and should be able to check:
Registered PHP Streams
php, file, data, http, ftp, compress.zlib, https, ftps, zip
zip

enabled
Extension Version

Zip version
1.8.11
Libzip version
0.9.0
If none of this gets working, you should contact me privately I will find and
resolve solution.
Best regards,
Sasa

This can also be a file permission / ownership issue. For example, if Joomla
can't copy the "unzipped" files to the server, it won't be able to read them
and find the manifest. I'd start by checking file/folder permissions and
ownership.

It's really weird because I created an akeeba backup file from the live site
and then recreated it locally on my home computer. On my computer locally I
have no problems installing the module.

Check to make sure that you do not have to unzip the package first.
I would also unzip it and make sure there is an XML file there.

Hi,
I've run into a problem on 1.6.2 When I'm trying to install module in to the
extension manager, I get the error "Unable to find Install Package" .
Anyone know what that means?
Thanks
Todd
