Hi, I had previously installed Gallery on my webserver, and decided yesterday to install mambo. I tried following the Howto.txt and ran into the following problem:
I go into Component->Install/Uninstall
I type into the install from directory box "/var/www/html/gallery/contrib/mambo"
I click install, but get the following error message:
"Failed with error Installation file not found: /var/www/html/gallery/contrib/mambo/"
My guess would be there is a permissions problem, but this shouldn't be the case.
My system is:
Fedora Core 2 Linux 2.6.6-1.435.2.3 x86_64
The current owner of all the files in /var/www/html/gallery is apache, which is the user that runs apache... the permissions of the files have been set recursively to 755... I'm guessing there is something I'm overlooking here, but I'm not sure what it is.
Thanks for the help!

Have you checked the contents of the /contrib/mambo directory?

Are these the correct files?
One thing I neglected to mention, is I decided to use the beta version of mambo (beta 3), has anyone else noticed this trouble with the beta version? Thanks!

Well, there's your issue, I'd bet.
The files seem fine, so it's likely the beta version of Mambo.

I had similar problem with my installation.
I removed lines:
--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x

from end of the gallery.xml in --/contrib/mambo directory.
After that I was able to add component to Mambo.
