The temporary:// subdirectory is your /tmp directory (see one of the
previous emails on how to find out, just in case you changed it). <br>
What permissions does that directory have (ls -ld /tmp)? It should be
something like this:<br>
drwxrwxrwt 5 root root 126976 Jun 2 10:44 /tmp<br>
(chmod 1777 /tmp)<br><br>
Also: What do you mean with "manually"? If I install a module
manually, I don't go through the administration interface, but I go
to:<br>
<br>
cd yourdrupalroot/site/all/modules<br>
and then execute<br>
tar -zxvf yourmodulepath/yourmodule.tar.gz<br><br>
This all assumes that you have shell access. <br><br>
There is a thread on <a href="http://d.org">d.org</a> about this:
<a href="http://drupal.org/node/1028630">
http://drupal.org/node/1028630</a>. Maybe, it gives you additional
pointers. <br><br>

<dd>Hello.<br><br>
<dd>Still on this... no clue at all...<br><br>
<dd>Now just guessing.... do you think this could be affected by the
amount of PHP memory asigned? I have only 128M Do you think in general
that would be enough? What's a good number for PHP memory
assigned?<br><br>
<dd>Thanks in advance<br><br>

<dd>Hmm, did you look into the system log for more information, as
suggested by the error message? Anything in error_log (wherever is is in
your installation)?<br>
<dd>I install my modules/etc using drush, so I can't quite replicate your
problem without switching on services I don't want. <br><br>
<dd>Posting articles, changing them etc. require database updates,
whereas the installation of a module/theme requires the correct
permissions in the directories involved. <br><br>

<dd>Hello.
<dd>Yes, there it says the temporal directory is /tmp (relative to that
server and domain)
<dd>It has write permissions, the same of the directory where drupal is
installed. I have control over it, I just uploaded a file, delete it....
<dd>Is there any file or files where I can see the relative file
configurations for Drupal?.
<dd>
<dd>Curiously ALL work fine.... can post articles, delete them, change
them.. change any parameters of the themes installed.... but you just can
not install anything new....<br>
<dd>Thanks in advance

<dd>Go to "Configuration ->Filesystem"
(admin/config/media/file-system), and look at the entry for
"Temporary Directory".
<dd>Does your web-server have write permissions to the directory?
<dd>You might have to update the entry with a directory you have control
over.

<dd>Immediately after installation I entered and
