Hello lucyferus,

There are com(onents), mod(ules), and bots and they are all extensions.

So if you decide to download a com_ then you would use the install menu and select components.
Locate the component on your local pc hard disk and click on install.
The same logic for mod_ and bots.

If you install a component, then you will find it under the Components menu in administration.

You may need to change some parameters for some of the extensions.

Hava a look at the Elxis wiki too.  http://wiki.elxis.org/wiki/Main_Page

xmanhattan - i know that, but i have error- why?

LOOK...

You have a red line in the install directory box.

You do not have to indicate the install directory.  Your files maybe installing somewhere else and that is probably why you are getting the error.

Just install again.

this red painted field  is  when you have uploaded the zipped file  somewhere at your server manually... and want to tell where is the file, to select and install.....
as it says is for installing from dir  not installing to

One thing that I forgot to ask.

Which component are you having the problem with?

which any extensions

[ks-net]

this is a permission or path error

[xmanhattan]

I have to agree with ks-net.

The 2 folders/directories that MUST be set to 777 are:
cache
tmpr

Other folders and sub-folders set to 755 and files to 644.

If you cannot do this using your ftp program then try using your file manager through the server cpanel.

1   safe_mode     ON

this also will give you a lot of problems

ok, so.. i must turn off this option?

this is a permission or path error

you say what is problems, but you dont tell me how i destroyed them

i don't say  because it is obvious ...  look at your screenshot and then read my answer to what screenshot says,

- permissions(777) for tmpr folder , be sure that this path(where the installer looks) is set correct to your configuration.php, you never know!
- safe_mode off
also recommend to enable elxis-ftp from globalconfig

"Elxis installation found. Your FTP settings are correct."
