No, there was no directory in there when I got a failed install originally (I did install these manually later, but I still want to troubleshoot how pun_repository works).

I commented out those lines for you in pun_repository.php, I assume that means that it won't remove the directory and archive if it fucks up.  Right now, I am testing by installing extension pun_bbcode via pun_repository.

This is what happens when I now attempt it:

Error from forum:
ERROR! Files could not be extracted from the downloaded archive. The next errors appear while extracting:
Error while opening {'../extensions/pun_bbcode/styles.css'} in write binary mode

ls -lah /some_path/forum/extensions | grep pun_bbcode
drwxrwxrwx 2 apache  apache 4.0K Nov 22 12:17 pun_bbcode
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache  apache  13K Nov 22 12:17 pun_bbcode.tgz

NOTE:  My punbb install is on a Plesk domain, and Plesk typically forces web content to have the following ownership scheme
user: username associated with domain
group: always 'psacln'

Now, there's nothing at all in the apache error_log, so this has got to be a permissions issue based on my environment.  This is further proven since the archive has 644 perms belonging to the apache user, and the resulting directory is empty.

Is there anyway anything can be done from the development end to catch this?  Or should I just continue to install extensions manually?

I would like a theme that resizes the width of the content on the page based on the resolution.  It seems to top out at 1100 pixels

[Mon Jan 28 10:15:03 2008] [error] [client xxxxxxxxx] PHP Warning:  file_exists() [<a href='function.file-exists'>function.file-exists</a>]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/proc/loadavg) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs:/tmp) in /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/forum/admin_index.php on line 79, referer: /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/forum/admin_options.php

Plesk has default rules about open_basedir in each domain's httpd.include file and removing the @ revealed that it wasn't letting PHP access /proc/loadavg at all.  Your new solution from PunBB 1.3 Dev works just fine since my PHP is >= 5.1.3.  If one is using Plesk as I am, one can also edit the domain's vhost.conf file (in the conf directory at the domain's root) to override the setting, but that may not be feasible depending on ones level of access.

Here are the adjustments Rickard suggested you can make to admin_index.php if you have this issue.  Remember PHP Version >= 5.1.3 is required

Find:

if (@file_exists('/proc/loadavg') && is_readable('/proc/loadavg'))

Replace With:

else if (@file_exists('/proc/loadavg') && is_readable('/proc/loadavg'))

Before, Add:

if (function_exists('sys_getloadavg'))
{
    $load_averages = sys_getloadavg();
    array_walk($load_averages, create_function('&$v', '$v = round($v, 3);'));
    $server_load = $load_averages[0].' '.$load_averages[1].' '.$load_averages[2];
}

Thanks again for your help, Rickard.  It is greatly appreciated.
