My Apologies. Here's what I did:
I downloaded hotspots-2.0.5-pro.zip, tried to install through the Extension Manager, I received this error:
JFolder: :files: Path is not a folder. Path: /var/www/vhosts/mysolutions.com/httpdocs/projects/myproject/tmp/install_4e8ef79b39e5e
JFolder: :folder: Path is not a folder. Path: /var/www/vhosts/mysolutions.com/httpdocs/projects/myproject/tmp/install_4e8ef79b39e5e
JFolder: :files: Path is not a folder. Path: /var/www/vhosts/mysolutions.com/httpdocs/projects/myproject/tmp/install_4e8ef79b39e5e
JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find Joomla XML setup file
With no luck, I then tried to install com_hotspots094d.zip, and was able to install it successfully. However, when I go to the configuration page, add an API Key, Save it, then I get a 500 error.
I made sure to make the components/com_hotspots directory writable
I'm running on Joomla 1.7
Thanks in advance
