I have installed joomla 2.5.4 in my system(window 7 64bit) but when I am trying to upload the package it is showing the error:

1.'JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find XML setup file'.

2.'Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in E:\xampp\htdocs\joomla2.5.4\plugins\system\rokextender\rokextender.php on line 32'

3.Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in E:\xampp\htdocs\joomla2.5.4\plugins\system\rokextender\rokextender.php on line 32

4.Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in E:\xampp\htdocs\joomla2.5.4\plugins\system\rokextender\rokextender.php on line 32

Can anybody help me to fix this error?

What are you trying to install and could you link to the zip file? – Søren Beck Jensen

You almost certainly have a permissions problem (see this related SO answer), and it's specific to the RocketTheme Extender that they use with Gantry for some of their RT magic. I'd check all the permissions in Joomla to make sure they match the minimum requirements, and then check the RocketTheme Products Forum for anything specific to that plugin.

Fulfill the minimal Gantry requirements:

  • PHP 5.3 or bigger
  • Write rights on you folder.

Set the folder rights to 755. Remark: You can also set this to 777, but your provider might protect your site from public access. This might generate strange errors, which have nothing to do with Joomla problems.
