Please look at the bottom of this page (under Support Policy Summary) for our support policy summary, containing important information regarding our working hours and our support policy. Thank you!

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.

Each time I try to install the zip package i get the following errors...

Warning
Copy file failed
Package Install: There was an error installing an extension: lib_fof30.zip

Error
Error installing package

I have tried this on a number of my sites, some with existing Akeeba installations, some wthout...all with the same result?

This message comes from Joomla! itself. It indicates that your temporary directory is set up wrong, it is unwriteable or you have a permissions error in one of the folders where files need to be installed in. Sorry for being this vague, Joomla! does not provide very accurate error messages :(

We have already documented Joomla! extension installation / update issues and how to fix them. Please click on the link I provided and follow the instructions under "Checking your temporary directory" and "Enable FTP".
