### 3.4. Installation FAQ

Q: The Mambo Installer tells me "ERROR: Could not find an XML setup file in the package". What's wrong?

A: Mostly this problem arises because you don't have unpacked the file `mambo-phpShop_x.x_COMPLETE_PACKAGE.zip` or tried uploading / installing it.

Q: Mambo Installer tells me "Another component is already using the directory com_phpShop"

A: Please delete the directories `/mambo/components/com_phpshop` and `/mambo/administrator/components/com_phpshop`.

Q: When using the automatic installation nothing happens after clicking on "Upload & Install" What's the cause?

A: mambo-phpShop is a big component, its installer file archive has a size of more than 1 MB. When uploading this file to your server you can wait a long time until the file is completely transferred to your server. You can use the Remote Installer for mambo-phpShop instead! http://mamboforge.net

Q: After having installed the component, I add a Main Menu Link to the phpShop component. But clicking on that link only displays the text "Welcome to Washupito's....." What's wrong?

A: mambo-phpShop is no component-only script. It's programmed to be used together with the corresponding mambo-phpShop Main Module. Without the module you'll always get the shop.index page. That's the cause.
