Drupal 7 is unable to install modules

My instance of Drupal 7 is unable to install new modules via FTP link. The error message that comes up is as follows :

Warning: fileowner() [function.fileowner]: stat failed for temporary://upd92FE.tmp in update_manager_local_transfers_allowed() (line 924 of C:\inetpub\wwwroot\drupal\modules\update\update.manager.inc).

My setup is as follows :

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit IIS 7.5 + Zend Community Server

Solution

  • Okay, found the solution.

    For some odd reason the temp directory was set as the following: alt text

    This naturally would not work. Just alter the back slash to a forward slash and you will be all set =)
