Hi all,

I tried to setup drupal 7.22 on my hosting account. When I was coppying my files to the server via ftp, my domain was suspended and file transfer stopped. When I asked the reason for that to the hosting company, they said the system.tar.inc file in the /modules/system directory, trying to break security wall.

Turns out, it really is. If I want to copy just that file "system.tar.inc", it makes the account suspend.

Any ideas for that ?

I think you need a better host.

So there is nothing wrong with that file ?

The problem is symlink function on line 1608. Try to deactivate it: change symlink to something like sy3mlin3k.

Nearly same problem, my hosting deletes system.tar.inc as i uploaded created manually. Changing symlink to sy3mlin3k works.

I tried the solution of guneysus but if I change "symlink" to "sy3mlin3k" the script doesn't work anymore, the file is not deleted from server but I can't use it, drupal stops when I try to install a new module.
