    Hello. I have been trying to install woocommerce for months. But It always shows installation failed. The error when I tried last time:
    Installation failed: Could not copy file. woocommerce/vendor/composer/installers/src/Composer/Installers/ElggInstaller.php
    It is not the only file that cannot be copied. Everytime I try to install, it shows different file.
    I tried creating new website, new account, with different devices, but nothing works.
    I using WordPress 5.6
    Please someone help!

  • Hi there,

    Installation failed: Could not copy file. woocommerce/vendor/composer/installers/src/Composer/Installers/ElggInstaller.php

    This seems an issue related to the permissions of these files. I’d suggest you to reach your hosting support team to see if they can help you from their side.

    Additionally, you can also try to install the plugin from the backend (Plugins>Add New) to see if it solves the issue.

    Thanks,

    I have tried installing from backend. In that case, I get an error while activating the plugin. I’ll see if I can contact the hosting provider and get some help!

    Are you getting the same error? If so, this would confirm that the issue is related to the permissions of the folders in your WordPress install.

    Please check it with your hosting team and let us know if they’re able to fix it for you.

    I tried installing with a different hosting provider. And it worked! Thank you.

    Awesome! I’m happy to hear that!

    As everything seems ok now, I’m going to mark this thread as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.

    Thanks,
