(SOLVED) jfolder:create error Joomla 1.6

-

This error occurs when you are trying to upload new joomla plugin , component , module or template . main reason this warning is displayed is because system cannot create new directories for new plugin , component , language pack , template or module you are trying to install .

Fix :
to fix this issue , perform following tasks ,
1) CHMOD /tmp , /logs folder to 777
2) make sure /templates , / components ,/modules , /administrator/components or /plugins – /plugins/editor etc are writeable i-e with 777 CHMOD permissions .
3)make sure path to /tmp folder and /logs folder is accurate in your configuration.php file
4) if you are using FTP layer make sure information entered is 100% accurate .
5) make sure your webhost or server support .zip extraction
6) make sure there isnt any conflicting file name in directory where you are uploading new file

90% chances these fixes above will solve the problem . comment below if its still unfixed and i will try best to suggest more .

webthosting Review , Worst host ever !

-

i signed up with webthosting for their cpanel shared web hosting package , outlook of their website looks impressive but its all useless , i signed up for account and i got cpanel access instantly i was happy with their services for first 2-3 days , on 4th day i received down time notice email ,

it was 2-3 hours down time , i thought its all cool no worries , but few days later they sent me same email and this time down time lasted for few days , i wasnt able to login to my cpanel too during this time . i have been playing with many web hosts some are over selling but i think none of them have such irritating down time periods . every week they have to warn about some errors / malfunctions / hacks attempts etc etc …
so if you are looking for a good web hosting my sincere advice is “please Stay Away From WebThosting ”

some major reasons to stay away from webthosting :
1.no live technical support
2.new company , no good history
3.irritating downtimes every day
4.unsafe / risky servers
5.they offer ffmpeg but its limited to less than 100 second upload limit like if you want to upload a big video which will take more than 100 seconds to upload ,then ffmpeg on webthosting will disallow that .
6.non-friendly support
7.cpanel panel login url gets changed every week

if you have more to say about webthosting please do share your thoughts in comment section .
