Hello all,
I am trying to figure out if Drupal can work for me.
Installed and themed a test site, trying to install Image module, as my site is supposed to work as art gallery.
So, following the instructions here http://drupal.org/node/120641 --- I downloaded a package here http://drupal.org/project/image , uploaded it unzipped to site/all/modules/.
Tryed to run cron and runed update.php.
Still can't find it between modules under Home » Administer » Site building.
I tryed other modules too but with same result.
For sure I missed some steps.. :D
Please help.

Looks as if you did
Looks as if you did everything right, but is the module path really "site/all/modules/"? It must be "sites/all/modules/" ('sites', not 'site').
You should see the modules at http://test.artefatta.biz/admin/build/modules, even without running cron and update.php. If not, check if the file paths are correct. For instance, the image module contains a file called 'image.module', which should be at sites/all/modules/image/image.module. Also, make sure you downloaded the version for Drupal 6. If you upload a Drupal 5 module, it will not show up.
Drupal Vertion is right... so
Drupal Vertion is right... so I guess the problem is a path.
now it's in (as it's on subdomain) public_html/test/all/modules instead of public_html/test/modules that is for core modules if I understood good.
I am not sure I understant right that "sites".. :/
And, yes, I see all core (required and optional) modules on page http://test.artefatta.biz/admin/build/modules, but not Image.

Also make sure you downloaded the proper version-- you can't use v5 modules on d6 and vice versa.
Yes, I downloaded module for

Make sure you have enabled the module in

That's the problem, abdu, I do not see it there, so I can't enable it.

Tryed also to put it in /public_html/all/modules/, still do not see it on admin modules page..
Can somebody post me the snapshot where there are visible contribution modules enabled (admin-build-modules).
I can't figure it out how to install one..
Sites is not something that
Sites is not something that refers to your site, but an actual folder inside the Drupal root.
Suppose you install Drupal in public_html/mysite/, then modules should be installed in:
public_html/mysite/sites/all/modules/[your module here]
The sites/all folder contains a README.txt
The 'sites' folder must be in
The 'sites' folder must be in the site root, so if the base of your drupal installation is public_html, the modules folder is public_html/sites/all/modules.

Thanks, just started.. a lot
Thanks, just started.. a lot to do and to ASK is waiting me and all you here folks!!! :D
Well, suddenly I am having
Well, suddenly I am having the same problem after trying to install a couple of new modules. My site tries and tries to open admin/build/modules, but ultimately gives me a "Page Not Found" error. The modules are in the correct folder, I'm logged in as user 1, I've tried removing them, but still no luck. I can't even recall when I last was able to navigate to admin/build/modules, except that it was before the update to 6.10. I can always roll back, but I'm not even sure where I'll need to roll back to!
Have you tried accessing the
Have you tried accessing the page with a not-clean url? ( www.yoursite.com/?q=admin/build/modules )
Yes, have tried that -- no
Yes, have tried that -- no luck, it just redirects me to the clean url (which gives the page not found error).
I noticed http://drupal.org/node/409902#comment-1389972 says that could be a problem on shared hosting if you add too many modules, so I've tried deleting the recently added ones, but that has not improved the situation.
I also went in through PHPMyAdmin to clean up the database, and have also run update.php, but that hasn't helped either.
Incidentally, when I run update.php, it seems to run just fine, but it finishes by taking me to the themed "page not found" page.
I'd love to help but I'm out
I'd love to help but I'm out of ideas. Anyone else?
Solved, although I don't exactly know why
So, this morning, I got on our site to post a press release, and low and behold, in addition to the above problems, I couldn't create content either!
Since I had no idea where I needed to roll back to if I were to simply restore backups, I knew I'd have to fix it some other way.
Lately, it has seemed that both Browscap and XMLsitemaps have been having problems. I also recently saw an odd error in the logs related to CCK, but didn't want to mess with that unless I have to.
So, I backed up, then started deleting modules - anything I knew I wasn't using, plus Browscap and XMLsitemaps. Also removed their tables completely from the database. Then I ran the update script, and I'm now back in business. I do like the features these both provide, so I'll try adding them back later to see if I can isolate (and maybe even replicate) the problem to see if there's really a problem, or if something just managed to get screwed up.
Extracted cck tar ball in drupal-6.15\sites\all\modules\cck
Following is the path where i unzipped cck. Do you guys find it wrong?? But I can not find cck tab in my Administer --> sites --> modules.
