Monkey uses Joomla as the CMS system for my personal website. For some reason after upgrade to the 1.5.8 verson, there is an error on FTP layer that whenever I tried to install a new extension. It gave me the error JFTP::connect: Could not connect to host "127.0.0.1" on port 21. Which make me cannot install new extension at all. I believe this is the bug in Joomla 1.5.8 or every 1.5.7. I hope someone will fix it in next version.
However I found a way to get around it.
1. Go to Global Configuration FTP Setting to disable the FTP
2. When you try to install a new extension, e.g Components, Plugins, Administrator/Components you need to change to directory property to public writeable. i.e. 777.
3. Install the Components
4. Change the Directories attributes back to 755.
A little bit trouble some compare to before, but it works, and I can keep improving my site and wait for the better next version.
