I have just done a fresh install of Drupal 6 and after uploading fresh module . I get a mass of errors and the modules don't even show on the modules page. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong ? My folders are set at 755 permission.

what is "fresh" module ? also is $drupal_root/sites/all/modules mounted on another partition which is not accessible by the apache processing (i'm assuming this is linux/apache so pls correct me if i'm wrong)

rgd.

I mean new modules separate from core modules . The core modules all show on the modules page and work as they should. It is only when I upload new contribution modules that the errors show and they are not listed on the modules page. Thanks

As a matter of fact when I upload new themes they don't show either

I got many errors of a similar kind (opendir, permission denied, and file.inc on line 895).
I changed the permission of every directory shown in opendir(...) from 740 to 744 and the errors disappeared.

Cheers
