Problems with installing any package

Hi everbody,

This is my third time try with revolution, and this time I would like to come to an happy end
After I could not get it work on a local xampp system, I now installed it at my provider.

My first problem is (Im afraid there will be a lot more ) the package management.

When I try to install (after I downloaded a package within the system) I get "Package not found"

But the packages are downloaded and "de?"zipped in the core/packages folder.

Now Im just confused what to do next. I guess I lack understanding for this technical stuff.
So, is it allready installed? How can I get it to work?

Many greeting from a happy little frogfish

Thanks

I get "Package not found"

do you have access to those files? Doed your webserver has access to those files? (What is the owner of those files and what permissions are set?)

and what group? Does apache has permission to write?

MODx doesn’t support that version of MySQL:

Hi,

well thats great.

My Provider (specialized for CMS like Joomla, Typo3 etc.) tells me its a debian package and no chance for a change within the next year.
Cant believe that.


Brrrrrr
Frogfish

Version 2.0.1
Traditional distribution
Windows Server 2003 R2
Apache 2.2.11
PHP 5.3.3
MySQL 5.0.91
pdo_myql installed

I cannot installed packages when using modxcms.com as provider. I click on a category and the list is empty. I had this same issue with a 2.0.1 install. So I’m at a loss what to do. I want to test modx for a project but it is becoming somewhat difficult.

Do you have cURL installed? What’s your ZipArchive and libzip version?
