      Can you install other extras?

        Try enabling the archive_with setting - it seems to me your server doesn’t support ZipArchive. Setting archive_with to "yes" will make it use another method.

            I will try that!

                  I am also having all sorts of problems trying to install extras while running Rev 2.1.1 on Wamp 2.1. I was able to install Wayfinder and getResources, but attempts to get Gallery (and other packages) delivers nothing other than errors.

                  An error occurred while connecting to the Provider: MODX received a blank response from the provider. Please double check your service URL and make sure the provider is a valid provider.

                  I subsequently tried to do a manual install by downloading the package, unzipping it into the core/packages directory, and then selecting the Search Locally for Packages option. This did not work either. At this point I am at a loss.
