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

Hello.
I need your help.
I guess that maybe it is a problem on my server but could not find what it is or where it is the error.
I installed on another site, no upgrade this time, just a fresh install using CPanel n a VPS server.
Immediately after installation I entered and tried to install a new theme.... an received the following error:
You are hereHome » Administration » ModulesModules.Error message•The specified file temporary://filePzGcMt could not be copied, because the destination directory is not properly configured. This may be caused by a problem with file or directory permissions. More information is available in the system log.
•http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/danland-7.x-1.0.tar.gz could not be saved to temporary://update-cache/danland-7.x-1.0.tar.gz.
•Unable to retrieve Drupal project from http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/danland-7.x-1.0.tar.gz.
ANy idea of what could wrong?
I guess the error could be on the server, but I am not sure... maybe in each virtual configuration of each domain.... any clue what in "temporary://update-cache/danland-7.x-1.0.tar.gz." temporary means?
ANy help is REALLY appreciate it. I have spend lot of time and can not find any clue of what to fix.

Just updating in case the comments could be of help.
I could not fix the error. I did not find what file or sub directory is not available. I delete all installation and will start from zero, on another domain, this time I will install themes and modules under version 7.0 and then will upgrade to 7.2. Let's see if the same error appears.
