After installing the module (step by step: INSTALL.txt), and runing cron, I got:

it doesn't like the default /tmp dir. change that value to something in your own dir. you will likely have to create the dir and give permissions to apache to write there. sorry, no more help now.

Thank you moshe weitzman!!

I tried to create a folder "tmp2" in files dir., but unfortunately I got much more errors (including these) than before.

Thanks anyway!

I had such message, move my drupal 5.5 from one server to another. I correct this problem with creating directory files/image/tmp chmod 777

this worked for me. Thanks had me quite stumped but as soon as I checked the files path there wasn't a image/tmp folder so created it and set permissions then all was fine again.

changed "/tmp" to "tmp" in the D7 directory admin/config/media/file-system.
this solved the issue for me
