When I've chucked Category into the modules folder and open the modules page, I get the following error log beneath the blurb (before the functions):

  • warning: parse_ini_file(modules/category.1/contrib/cac_lite/cac_lite.info) [function.parse-ini-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/sites/drupal/includes/module.inc on line 195.

...However this is just a symptom. Another one is that the available modules for install have no label text nodes. I can only tell they are the Category modules by looking at the source of the tick boxes.

When I use the source view to work out which boxes I want to tick, and attempt to install these, I get the following error:

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './modules/category.1/category.install' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/sites/drupal/includes/install.inc on line 726

The huge list of warnings also comes whenever I try to add content, among other interactive functions.

I know this is stale, but I note that your directory is named "category.1"

That suggests you have an extra copy of category installed. Maybe clearing that up would help...

Actually, I'm leaning more towards it being the webserver not having read permissions....

In any case, it's probabaly one of the two.

I quite agree with #3. I've seen a few similar messages myslef, when I forgot to configure filesystem permissions on my test install.

Since this is a suppoert request, and no further comments came for nearly 2 years, closing now.
