Fresh install problem - parameters is blank

0
Now I have installed this 3 times: first time resulted the same as the 3rd. Second time was and installation of an older version on 1.6.6 of joomla - this resulted in the parameters to be visible.

All installs had issues with various modules. I was able to configure a page with the Alphabetical search mod and able to display featured albums. Featured artist resulted in a blank page. Creating a link to the default layout resulted in a blank page (otherwise a misconfiguration)

First install resulted in the player not working and the second install (older version)resulted in the player working. I was able to get the cloud plugin to work on the second install and clicking around resulted positive. going to albums, or songs etc.

I am on my 3rd install and figured I would inquire here to figure out what the original problem was...the parameters not being able to view...

Thanks

    hello!!

    are you installing the correct files?

    if you are in Joomla 1.6, then all packages names end with "_1.6.zip"

    for instance, main component is com_muscol_2.2.0_community_pro_1.6.zip

    DO NOT INSTALL a file if it does not have the 1.6.zip: it won't work, because it's for Joomla 1.5!!

    is that the problem you're having?

    No Installed all the 1.6 files...It seems that the parameters are not viewable and the players is not functioning. Adding albums, artist songs etc is working fine. Creating a menu item is working fine too displaying the default page, with search by alpha, search albums etc.

    Okay - I found that I installed plg_player_2.2.1 and not the 2.2.0_1.6 after uninstalling 2.2.1 and installing 2.2.0_1.6 I was given successful install only to find that the plugin in not there under management.

    I also found that I had two muscol components enable under management one uppercase and one lower case. I am going to proceed by UN-installing the component(2), Plugs and Modules.

    Going for another install...

    FYI - This is Joomla 1.6.6 on a windows based system.
