Modules in the module folder but not showing in the Modules Administration

Wow, I am about to lose it.

I have installed many modules and know the drill, put the module into the module folder via FTP and then go to the Modules Administration section of the admin section of my site and install. Better yet I have installed the modules in question on other sites and had no problem.

Here is what is happening. I put the "Planet" folder for XOOPS Planet into the modules folder via FTP. Then I go to the Modules Admin section and there is no module to install there? The same for the "wordpress" module.

I am on Godaddy for a server and am very frustrated right now. I cannot find anything wrong....

HELP any ideas?

Have you added Frameworks and xoopseditors to your site? Those modules are by phppp and the requirements for those modules include the above.

Well this is weird

I have the xoopseditors installed. I just put in the frameworks in the root directory as the instructions asked and when I go to my home page it just shows a blank white page. So first i go to the modules and try and update the system, this takes me to a blank page so I remove the frameworks folder, update the system and all is well and back to normal?
Maybe I need a different verion of Planet and Wordpress what version(s) should I put in for this configuration?

Frameworks folder is case sensitive with a capital "F" just in case the ftp changed the case as it does on some servers.

Just a thought...

Good Luck

Start by uninstalling the modules.

Make sure Frameworks has the proper name (Frameworks, not frameworks)

Verify site functionality.

Change to default theme.

Add one module and install it - verify functionality. Remove if it is not working

Try the other module.

Be sure to clear templates_c and cache folders at each step.

Well, it gets weirder

-Removed modules
-I put the Frameworks in the root directory.
-Go to site and it is blank
-Go to admin to change to default theme, I am presented with "This is the first time you are in admin..." (Something like that)I Click ok and get a blank white screen
-Uninstall the Framworks folder and all is back to normal.

Color me confused...

So with Frameworks installed I get a blank white screen for my home page and for the system admin...

How about this I need to syndicate some blogs to my site and would like the graphics to come through. XCHL0 is the only module that seems to work for this site but no graphics. Any suggestions on where there might be a syndicator I can use.

This is really too bad as I (When I had it running in my test site) loved the Planet.... But my site seems to gag on Frameworks.

Seems I downloaded the wrong version...

I cannot tell you what version I had but instead of one file I got two one for planet and one for Frameworks the version that worked for me is 1.01

Thank you all for your help and sorry to have been the reason for the error...
