I'm new to Joomla. I don't know PHP. But I got Chronoforms working on Joomla 1.5 and it appears as "Chrono Contact" in the Components listing, and is enabled. I also tested it by creating a form and was able to view the result. But now I'm trying to install the mambot so I can use the form inside my pages, and the installer gives this message (in red):

* JFolder::create: Could not create directory
* JInstaller::install: Failed to create directory "/home/.sites/39/site9/web/plugins/content/chronocontact"

Intall Plugin Error

What could have gone wrong?

maybe a folders' permissions problem ?

Hi sufiblade,

The most common reason for this kind of error is that your ISP has a file security setup like mod_security. Please check their help about what is required to be able to create folders. Some other users have reported that chmod to 755 (not 777) works for them.

Thank you! It worked......I am loving Joomla and this extension and hating the Linux host
