I'm getting an error trying to upload JCE extension.

Warning: Failed to move file!

Hi mvang,

What Joomla version are you using? Are you able to install any other extensions?

If so, install Admin Tools and run its permission correction feature. Check out the following tutorial:

I'm currently using Joomla 2.5.6 when I tried to upload Admin Tools I'm getting the same error.
Warning: Failed to move file!

Hi mvang,

Usually this is a permission problem that Admin Tools will fix, but I can see if you can't upload that, you can't fix it that way!

Can you use your file manager or FTP to access the server and check to see that your folders are CHMOD 755 and your articles are 644.

Make your configuration.php file 644 while you're working with it. You can change it to 444 when you're done if you want added security.

Also go to your Global Configuration and see if the path to your tmp directory is there and that it is correct. Make sure the tmp directory is 755 as well. If you don't have a tmp directory, create one and put the path to it in the global admin.

Try that and see if it makes anything work.

Cheers,
Ed

I have super user admin access however if why are some of the components status with a lock icons instead of check mark? Do I not have full permission?
Where can I change my permission to full access?

Hi mvang,

It's because those are core components that cannot be uninstalled.

Please check with your host and ask them to fix the permissions and file ownership for you. It should take them just a few minutes to do that. Afterward, you should be able to install extensions.

Kind regards,
Nick
