Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
I'm using trying to install the 7.x-3.0-alpha1 version of Views and I get an error:
HTTP error 1 occurred when trying to fetch http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/views-7.x-3.0-alpha1.tar.gz.
Unable to retrieve Drupal project from http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/views-7.x-3.0-alpha1.tar.gz.
Same issue with the dev version as well.. I dont get this error when I try to download other modules.. I'm downloading the module via "Install from a URL"..

dawehnerThis seems to be a configuration problem/bug of Update module.

mva.name CreditAttribution: mva.name commentedI've same issue (and with the same views module, but with rc3 version) on 7.9.
I've safe_mode enabled, but I allow php to use fopen_url in php.ini.
And I don't see any errors in logs (neither syslog nor error.log of webserver)...
Any ideas?

Kev CreditAttribution: Kev commentedI'm getting the same issue as described with the latest Drupal version (updated from 7.0 to 7.10).
I try to add some more infos about my case:
Howto reproduce:
I get:
http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/pathauto-7.x-1.0.tar.gz could not be saved to temporary://update-cache-6b023fe3/pathauto-7.x-1.0.tar.gz.
Unable to retrieve Drupal project from http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/pathauto-7.x-1.0.tar.gz.
as a direct answer. Looking into the log (database or syslog) I will find:
The specified file temporary://fileqjqIvj could not be copied to temporary://update-cache-6b023fe3/pathauto-7.x-1.0.tar.gz.
------ let's have a look at the filesystem -------
I go into the tmp/ directory:
trying to extract the file to verify download worked:
------------------
If I delete the update-cache directory in the tmp directory It will be recreated on the next try so there is no permission issue. Also drupal runs as user "drupal" with fcgi.
How can I help debugging this issue? How can I find out why drupal can not copy the file to the update-cache directory? Can I increase the verbosity of the errors in some kind?
