I just installed the latest Mambo and SMF and am seeking to integrate them, so I downloaded the latest "Mambo-SMF Integration v1.2.0-Final."  I don't quite follow the docs:


"1. Install Mambo-SMF Integration component.

2. Install mod_smf_login module. When you publish, open to
   module parameters then save. If you just publish by just
   clicking the "x" mark on the module list, you won't be
   able the see the login links.
   
3. In SMF Package Manager, install SMF-Mambo Integration mod.
   Just follow the screen instructions from the mod."


How does step 1 differ from step 2?  "When you publish?"  What - every time a news story is posted?  Can anyone expand on these?  Thanks.

Thanks.

I keep getting this error when I try to upload:

/home/mydir/www/MamboSMFIntegration_1.2.0_final/com_mambo_smf_integration_1.2/com_mambo_smf_integration_1.2.zip

into the Mambo component admin:

Upload component - Upload Failed
Unrecoverable error "PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10)"

Any ideas?   Thanks.

Thanks...  As you can see in the post preceeding your response, I was in the process of instsalling the Mambo-SMF Integration component when I got that zip error.  I unpacked the original download and it unpacked the three .zips you spoke of.  As I used Mambo's component admin to point to the Mambo-SMF Integration file ("com_mambo_smf_integration_1.2.zip"), I experienced this error:


Upload component - Upload Failed
Unrecoverable error "PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10)"


Any ideas what the issue might be?  I can 'unzip' the archive on the command line just fine - does not seem a corrupted .zip.  Thanks.
