Hi,

I know this question has been asked before..Whenever i try to install/uninstall a module, i get a message on top saying "File not found" and "Unable to write to main menu"

I have removed readonly(windows server) for cache, template_c, cache/adminmenu.php etc..

Still i get the same error..Has any one fixed this..I don't know why i get this...

Judging by what you wrote you did already use the search and most likely also this won´t be the reason for your problem:

Referer removed
Some security softwares (eg. Norton Internet Security) disable referer of browser.
They prevents your XOOPS from installing modules.

More likely it's the cache\adminmenu.php file. Make sure it's set to writeable. CHMOD it to 666 and you should be OK. Not sure why this isn't in the install documentation.

Maybe all of this has been covered above, but there's a Wiki FAQ item on this specific issue: http://wiki.xoops.org/wakka.php?wakka=FAQFAILWRITE
