Hi Todd,
Source code of fresh Joomla installation has this code for install: global $mainframe; $this->setState('action', 'install'); switch(JRequest::getWord('installtype')) { case 'folder': $package = $this->_getPackageFromFolder(); break; case 'upload': $package = $this->_getPackageFromUpload(); break; case 'url': $package = $this->_getPackageFromUrl(); break; default: $this->setState('message', 'No Install Type Found'); return false; break; } // Was the package unpacked? if (!$package) { $this->setState('message', 'Unable to find install package'); return false; } It is possible that your archive file was too big, so PHP upload limit has reached and uploaded File does not exists after upload, it is also possible that your archive is damaged, you should Test is archive damaged by opening it and testing from WinRar, third option is that on your Hosting PHP does not have allowed zip extension: PHP.INI file: [PHP_ZIP] extension=php_zip.dll You should upload by ftp to site root attached file and call it from the browser, and should be able to check: Registered PHP Streams php, file, data, http, ftp, compress.zlib, https, ftps, zip zip Zip enabled Extension Version $Id: php_zip.c 293036 2010-01-03 09:23:27Z sebastian $ Zip version 1.8.11 Libzip version 0.9.0 If none of this gets working, you should contact me privately I will find and resolve solution.

This can also be a file permission / ownership issue. For example, if Joomla can't copy the "unzipped" files to the server, it won't be able to read them and find the manifest. I'd start by checking file/folder permissions and ownership.

Check to make sure that you do not have to unzip the package first. I would also unzip it and make sure there is an XML file there.
