Install module fails silently

Hi All,
When i am installing a new custom module it appears in the module list in Admin area.

After clicking on install I get the confirmation message, then when it should show me the list of the files being added to the DB, it just goes back to the module admin list.

This module does work on my local install of XOOPS (which was copied from the live, so same version numbers for everything).
This happened the other day aswell but when i tried again later it worked.

Can anyone tell me how i start to debug what is causing this.
I have removed and recopied the module folder over and checked my xoops_version.php

Thanks

which XOOPS version?

in XOOPS 2.3.2 can you activate the debug under this url:
/modules/system/admin.php?fct=preferences&op=show&confcat_id=1

point: Debug

Xoops 2.3

Thanks for the hint, i have done that now. i.e. we are running in Debug mode, however this does not seem to alter anything. Symptoms same as before.

Its seems that some stuff is not going into the DB.
The module is not in the DB, but then i would not have expected it to be yet..... but the debug value in the config table ;-

do_debug | _MI_DO_DEBUG

is set to 0

Right the reason this was happening was mainly due to a problem with my user account.
I should have been a full admin user;-
In the group 'webmasters' and with full permissions, but i did not have the right rank in user details under 'Rank'. This was not set atall, fixing it by logging in as another admin account made everything work.

Thanks for your help.
