Hi there, I wonder if anyone can help me out here, I seem to have a problem with this module on a Windows server with IIS.

I upload the module and place in the modules folder but when I go to the admin section and modules to install it I get told that there is an invalid dirname.

The error appears as a message above the section for modules available for installation.

At first I thought the problem might be with the server but I have been able to upload other modules without a problem.

Maybe a corrupt file, but the file/module works fine on 2 apache/linux servers.

I am wondering if it is the ability to clone the module that you guys have been good enough to build in to the module. Some how the module has to know which version it is, based on its directory name right? So I am wondering if the way you call for the directory name is calling it in a way that the Windows server is unable to 'understand'?

First off, does anyone else have this module running on a Windows based Xoops site?

Second; is there any thing you can suggest I do so that the path to the module can be called under Windows.

Third; I don't need more than one instance of this module on this Windows site, I wonder if someone might be good enough to let me know what I need to change so that the module has a static path, or atleast so that it does not need to check on its directory name in order to know which version of the module it is.

Sorry if that lot makes no sense, if you need me to clarify anything, please let me know and I'll do my best.

For reference, the exact error in the modules admin section is:

Also if I look at the modules admin page with Internet Explorer, I get a 'place holder' to show where the image for this module should appear, if I right click on it, the shortcut looks like this:


Thanks for any help.

Any ideas?
