I am having issues with uploading components in joomla even if i log in as an administrator. every time i upload a component i get an error that the folder could not be created. all the following folders are writeable

components
administrator/components
administrator/modules
media
images/stories

i also asked my web hosting company and an administrator changed the folder permission to 777 mode. inspite of all this i am still not able to upload any component.

i need to install a chronoforms component for the website. can anyone suggest how i can fix this problem. also is there a manual process to upload a component if so what is the procedure.

Please advice.

Thanks.

Hi sudhakararaog,

Which versions of ChronoForms & Joomla are you using?

What error message do you get when you try to install?

Can you install other components? (They all use the same method.)

Have you tried the 'Install from directory' method? - See the Joomla installer page for info.

What shows up on the installer page for the folders?

Are the chronoforms folders empty? sometimes aborted installations leave files there. Please delete any existing com_chronocontact folders.
