Title: Problem installing template
Post by: nemo411 on July 11, 2007, 19:37:58

I am trying to install the template named Pathway2 which is supposed to work for Joomla 4.5.1 or higher.... and i get the following error when trying to install:

File /home/nemotech/public_html/411/cms/tmpr/install_469505d9c97d7/index.php does not exist!

does anyone have any idea what would cause this? I have no problems with the rest of my installation....

Thanks in advance! Chris  (I have attached the template I am trying to use)

I know for sure that eliasan have already wrote nice tutorial about this, so please do look around before asking.

Hint
template dir inside .zip file

I was having trouble installing templates also. For the ones that fail to install because of a supposedly missing file

• unzip them onto your hard drive
• upload (FTP) the template keeping the directory structure intact to the administrator\components\com_intaller\template  - make sure you don't upload from in your instance the directory "Pathway2" - only the files under it.
• Go into the backend - Templates Manager/Site Templates and "Install from Directory" - not upload!!

I've installed Joomla-Art, Rocketthemes, Joomla-shack and they all work fine doing it this way

Hope this helps

Geoff

Unzip template locally and re-zip it without container folder.
