I've tried to instal in local mod_latestarticles_1.0.zip
Elxis gives this error:
An Elxis package must be a ZIP compressed file!
I've tried to install in local other new extensions too, but nothing... always the same error,
form EDC the inslall works right

You get this warning on this particular extension or on any extension you try to install by file upload?

He said that it is for any extension downloaded from EDC.
I will check it right nor for possible bugs and reply again.
EDIT.
Do this test.
Open
components/com_extmanager/controllers/install.php
Go to line
255
Change this:
if (($filext != 'zip') || !in_array($_FILES['package']['type'], array('application/zip', 'application/x-zip', 'application/x-zip-compressed'))) {
To this:
if (($filext != 'zip') || !in_array($_FILES['package']['type'], array('application/zip', 'application/x-zip', 'application/x-zip-compressed', 'application/octet-stream'))) {
Re-try to install something.
If it fails, change line 255 to this:
if ($filext != 'zip') {
Try again.
Tell me which method worked for you.

OK, I will remove the mime type check and leave only the extension check.
Thanks for the report.
