ERROR: failed to mkdir : Magento Problem
June 14, 2011
All the website developer (who works on
Magento) know how to install the
magento extension. We use magento downloader to install extension. But sometimes we receive the an error “
ERROR: failed to mkdir”. Generally you get the problem after moving the site from one host to another host.
I just found the solution for it. It is because of php.ini file which locates under root/downloader/pearlib/
Simple solution is delete or rename php.ini file (renaming is good option).
Once you will done, try again to install extension and I am sure you will say WOW, it works.
