While trying to install Joomla Templates I get this error :

Warning

JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find Joomla XML setup file

What file is it ?

I am using Joomla 3 . I downloaded few of the Joomla templates from torrent and all of these show up this error. What is it ? It can be so for the all the templates I downloaded.Is it that Joomla 1.5 template won't work with Joomla 3 ?

How do I install these templates ? I see a file named templateDetails.xml in there.

Note:

Here is the templateDetails.xml : thexml.html

joomla joomla-extensions joomla-template joomla3.0

Is it that Joomla 1.5 template won't work with Joomla 3 ? The answer is YES ,You cannot use Joomla 1.5 Templates directly to Joomla 3. Because from Joomla 1.6 the structure of the Installer file has been changed. You need to upgrade you Joomla 1.5 template to Newer version of Joomla.To do this see the link below:

Hope this will help you.
