I just purchased and downloaded 4.1.1 but it won't install with Joomla 1.5. Looking at the xml file there is a mismatch in the file names.
Is there a fix for this?

The install package itself is corrupt.
If you unzip the component, and look inside the install.xml file, you’ll see the line:
install/jfbconnect.install.php
install/jfbconnect.uninstall.php

If you look for that file, it’s named “install.php”

Hence, the error is completely accurate – the file “install/jfbconnect.install.php” can’t be found…
I also looked for the uninstall file – it also doesn’t exist.

Andy,
Please make sure you downloaded the correct version of JFBConnect for your version of Joomla. There is a separate file for Joomla 1.5 and another for Joomla 1.6/1.7. My guess is that you're using the wrong installer package.

The 1.6/1.7 version uses the install.php file and the 1.5 version uses jfbconnect.install.php file. The right file should only be included in the package you're using (which would be the jfbconnect.install.php file). The install.php (for J1.7 only) should be missing. My guess/hope is that you downloaded both files, but unzipped the wrong one to check for your issue.

Either way, we haven't heard of this issue before, and there are lots of people who have installed JFBConnect on Joomla 1.5 and 1.7, as well as a lot of testing that goes into each release.

If you are still having issues, please let us know what happens when you try to install.. specifically, what error message you receive.

Thanks,
Alex
