Can anyone HELP?

Warning: zip_entry_read() [function.zip-entry-read]: The bytes parameter must greater then zero in /hsphere/local/home/myplace/lxyz.com/libraries/joomla/filesystem/archive/zip.php on line 239

I hate to say it…cause it will mean a reinstall, but generally this error pops up when running Joomla databases under PHP 4 instead of PHP 5.

If you don’t have your own server and are using a third-party internet provider, just call them and ask to use PHP 5 instead…and life should be good. There should be no cost for the switch.

FYI – GoDaddy gives you the choice between 4 & 5 when you set up a database…so you can do it yourself…if GoDaddy is your brand.

John.
