* JFolder::create: Could not create directory * Warning! Failed to move file.

[sven_sim]

You may get the above mentioned error while installing Extensions from your Joomla admin section.

One of the solutions is to check the tmp_path in the configuration.php file.

if $tmp_path = '/public_html/tmp';

then you change it to :-

$tmp_path = '/home/username/public_html/tmp'; [i.e. the absolute path to the tmp directory under your account]

and Save the file.


This should resolve the issue and the Extensions can be installed successfully.

PS : Make sure that the tmp directory is writable.
