trouble in installing comp/modules etc in Mambo

[ChipMonk]

I tried to install a couple of modules / components and templates in a mambo installation (added by application pack) but it always fails, giving different message.

something i m missing in configuration or it simply cant be?

[eilko]

not all directories necessary are writeable.

Mambo is installed as user.psacln but new modules install as apache.apache.

[ChipMonk]

well, thanx for indicating the thing, but doesnt it need a lot of manual work to be done? and i will have to change the ownerships etc?

Actually there is ascript you can get for Mambo that allows you to use ftp upload of all modules ect so that they are all chowned into the proper user IDs.
