Hi!

I have a problem updating a component. I am using version 2.2.1 and trying to update to 2.2.2. When i put it in my joomla backend, i get an error that another extension is using this directory. Should I only change the files manually via FTP?

    but.. are you using the UPGRADE package? in this case you only need to unzip it and manually upload the files by FTP...!
    if you were trying to install the full component, it's normal that it says that tehre is already another component using the directory...!

    There is only this update file listed:

    com_muscol_upgrade_220_to_221_1.6_NOT_AUTOINSTALL.zip

    I have 221 already, I would like to instal 222.

    ah! sorry I misunerstood the versions.

    the only difference with 2.2.2 is a very small tweak for joomla 2.5, that's all
    2.2.1 and 2.2.2 are IDENTICAL, it's simply that 2.2.2 is fillu compatible with Joomla 2.5...

    what version of Joomla are you using?

    do you have a FRESH install of Joomla 2.5? or you migrated from 1.7?

    then you just need to MANUALLY upgrade to version 2.2.1 (download file on YOUR ORDERS)
    it's a manual upgrade, you just need to unzip and upload the files (1 or 2 files I think)
    then you can download the full new package 2.2.2, unzip it, and you will need to manually upload only these files:

    /admin/views/albums/tmpl/default.php
    /admin/views/artists/tmpl/default.php
    /admin/views/songs/tmpl/default.php
    /admin/views/genres/tmpl/default.php
    /admin/views/types/tmpl/default.php
    /admin/views/tags/tmpl/default.php
