Missing .htaccess file and cannot install FC

I have tried repeatedly to install Flexi on my server with no luck. I finally realized that my joomla install manager was trying to tell me that this file doesn't exist.

public_html/tmp/com_flexicontent_v2/site/medias/.htaccess

Can anyone help!

Hello

can you copy the full and exact error message, here ?

Thank you for getting back to me. The message I receive from the joomla back end is:

Warning
JInstaller: :Install: File does not exist /home/bridgeho/public_html/tmp/com_flexicontent_v2/site/medias/.htaccess

And when I looked, it was true that there is no ".htaccess" file in the medias folder. I looked for it in other places but could not find it anywhere.

I appreciate your help!

Hello

but FLEXIcontent does not reference this file in its installation script :
medias/.htaccess

- first, please test on different installation, without any 3rd-party plugins installed
does it install properly ?

which is your Joomla version ?

I am running a new installation of joomla 3.2.1

I just disabled the plugins I have installed. I think tried to install FLEXIcontent but was again unsuccessful. I received the same message as before.

The plugins I have installed are JCE, JEvents and K2. I installed K2 in order to explore it while trying to figure out how to install FLEXIcontent. Even with those having been disabled I was unable to install flex.

And by the way, my attempts to install FLEXIcontent all took place before installing K2

Hello

please
-- put site on an online server and then send me an email with super admin access

please note that i will uninstall FC (which delete FLEXIContent DB table, but this is not a problem in your case since the FLEXIContent installation is new right ?)

Ok, I just sent my login info to you by private message.

you won't need to uninstall FC because I have not been able to install it yet!

Hello

i see that backend is broken because the K2 installation is half completed

Please delete file:

/home/bridgeho/public_html/administrator/modules/mod_k2_stats/mod_k2_stats.php


you may re-install it after problems are resolved

Ok. I just finished deleting the file you referenced. . . . not sure how I will reinstall it. but if I can get FC to work I doubt I will need K2, right?

And by the way, at this point I can easily uninstall joomla and start the process again. I have not started putting content into the site.

. . . if that makes things easier.

also, if it makes a difference, here is the location of flexicontent
public_html/tmp/com_flexicontent_v2

Hello

web-sites may have different needs,

you can use whatever is more appropriate

in this case the installation of K2 was half completed

and thus the backend main screen (that shows quick access modules) could not be loaded , so i could not test FLEXIcontent
