Cannot install the chronoforms component

MelB 21 Oct, 2010
Hi,

I am trying to install ChronoForms_V3.1_RC5.5 but after 3 attempts I just can't get it to work. I get the following error messages:

JFolder::files: Path does not point to a valid folder or the folder has been deleted.
JFolder::folder: Path does not point to a valid folder or the folder has been deleted.
JFolder::files: Path does not point to a valid folder or the folder has been deleted.
Error! Could not find a Joomla! XML setup file in the package.

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /home/Melanie1/public_html/mysite.co.uk/libraries/joomla/installer/helper.php on line 142

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /home/Melanie1/public_html/mysite.co.uk/libraries/joomla/installer/helper.php on line 142

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/Melanie1/public_html/mysite.co.uk/libraries/joomla/installer/helper.php on line 187

Has anyone else had this issue and found a solution?

I have checked the Global configeration and ftp is set at disableds, also have increased max upload size in the php.ini - I still get the same errors.

Hi MelB,

Usually ChronoForms installs OK, and sometimes it doesn't :-(

Several other things might affect this. The error message you have suggest either permission problems or a corrupt installation upload.

Please check that there are no existing adminitrator/components/com_chronocontact or components/com_chronocontact folders in case these are left over from a failed install.

Then I suggest that you try doing a manual installation the official docs are here and there's also a user friendly video here
