Description of my issue:

I have made several attempts to update my Joomla 1.5.22 install
and get continued errors. I have tried the manual install and Admin Tools. With admin tools I get ERROR:
Could not upload CHANGELOG.php

I have checked permission on /TMP directory and avaialable disc space. Still, unable to do update. The message on the Admin update states: "Reinstall 1.5.25, but my system info still reflects a 1.5.22 install.

Replying to my own topic as this problem may relate to the same problem. I renewed my Admin Tools sub for 2.1.14 and attempted to upload file.
Admin Tools stated I needed to FTP, but then errored, stating install manually, I attempted to install manually and I get additional error: "Unable to find install package"

Stumped. Anyone have suggestions?

Thank you for your response. I went back after failing to get either the Joomla update or the Admin Tools update to work, and decided to disable the FTP setting on the Core Joomla Configuration. I was able to successfully install the Joomla 1.5.25 update via Akeeba Admin Tools and install the latest
latest Admin Tools manually. Turning FTP OFF solved the problem.
(I double-checked to make sure I was using correct ID and password)

The files were all owned by me (owner of account), and the same user of the ftp account. Reviewing many of the files and directories did not show any ownership or permission issues.
So it didn't make sense that disabling (Joomla Config) the FTP would solve the problem. When I was using Admin Tools, it stated that FTP was the only way to proceed.

While I don't understand why it worked, disabling the FTP option allowed me to work all the functions I need with Joomla and Akeeba Admin Tools, allowing me to do all the updates needed.

I was wondering if having both FTP enabled on Joomla system config
AND trying to FTP with Admin Tools could have created some kind of conflict?

(Sorry about the 'double-post', I do appreciate the wonderful products and support of Akeeba!!)
