Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? yes
Joomla! version: 2.5.4
PHP version: 5.3.10
MySQL version: 5.1.56
Host: (gws-host.com)
Akeeba Backup version: (3.5.x latest)

Description of my issue:
You seem to have an issue in the XML-file of latest version. I get "Install path does not exist" where your other extensions such as Admin Tools Pro etc all install just fine. I get this on 3 sites I tried on our own servers as well as on one site at a client server on Hostgator (all sites 2.5.4 Joomla)

(and yes permissions are all correct blah blah)

The XML is not buggy. There is a different issue. Akeeba Backup Core is trying to install plugins which are only present in the Professional release. That's where the "Install path does not exist" comes from. You can safely ignore those error messages. They are, in fact, just a cosmetic issue.

Thanks for the heads up! It seems that the cause was just a missing line in the post-installation script :)
