I just post it here as I don't really beleive such will be broken in a beta version.
There must be an issue on my side.

Returning to devevelopment after some years, I just setted a new server (ubuntu/php/mysql) to test D8.
The server is funcitonnal and holding well a simplemachineforum currently in produciton.

After everthing was woring great, I installed D8 and ho my good feeling.
Everthing was working well but I then wanted to extend it with some modules and so the fun came to end.

I tried to install media entity and got issues weither I try both the URL or uploading, same issue.
I activated the logging to try to understand but it is not clear to me, I'll try so to explain.

I go to extend > add module > select the tar.gz file and then land on admin/modules/install with the below error (example with entity embed here):

User warning: The following module is missing from the file system: entity_embed in drupal_get_filename() (line 255 of core/includes/bootstrap.inc).

I guess he doesn't find the module he tries to install, but trying to debbug, I went to /tmp (defined as temorary directory for my drupal) on my server and it seems that the tar.gz has been well uploaded there...

Any idea of what should I do from there?

Thanks in advance

research the D8 issue queue for discussions about the feature in question. if a fix has been rolled into D8 -dev, test it.

Mmmm indeed I found https://www.drupal.org/node/2042447 : maybe it is not my own setup then !
I'll try to dig it to see if related to my issue : wasn't expecting such functionnalty to be broken in a beta :-)

Thanks for the advice, kept me rolling.
