Fails during installation due to some missing files.

xml refers to:
gradient.jpg - doesnt exist
menu_li_a.jpg - doesnt exist but there is a menu_li_a_hover.jpg
sub_menu_row.jpg - doesnt exist but there is a submenu_row.jpg

column_bottom.jpg, column_top.jpg and undermenu.jpg exist but not referred to in the xml

I've just checked the template and installed it on a brand new joomla without any problems. Could you please make sure that you have downloaded the correct archive file and it is not corrupted? Also if you can provide me with a way to recreate the problem, it would help me determine the exact cause of the issue.

Well I tried again just now and still the same problem. This is version 1.0 BTW

I downloaded "lily" (SG85) from the site.
Got the email with the link, downloaded and unpacked it.

The temaplateDetails.xml has the following
<filename>images/banner_01.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/banner_02.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/bg.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/content.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/content_bottom.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/emailButton.png</filename>
<filename>images/gradient.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/h3.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/header.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/indent1.png</filename>
<filename>images/menu_li.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/menu_li_a.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/menu_row.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/middle.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/pdf_button.png</filename>
<filename>images/printButton.png</filename>
<filename>images/search.jpg</filename>
filename>images/sub_menu_row.jpg</filename>

and that is just plain wrong, and it simply has to fail on installation becuase the actual image name are not the same.

I manually corrected the xml to read as below, this then install and works:

<filename>images/banner_01.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/banner_02.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/bg.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/column_bottom.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/column_top.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/content.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/content_bottom.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/emailButton.png</filename>
<filename>images/h3.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/header.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/indent1.png</filename>
<filename>images/menu.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/menu_li.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/menu_li_a_hover.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/menu_row.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/pdf_button.png</filename>
<filename>images/printButton.png</filename>
<filename>images/submenu_row.jpg</filename>
<filename>images/undermenu.jpg</filename>


Take "sub_menu_row.jpg" as an example, the is no such file in the image folder it is actually named submenu_row.jpg, so unless you correct the xml the tempalte wont work.

Check the file that you get from the email link, it is still the wrong file.
Its not a corrupt download, if corrupted I wouldnt be able to open it, it wouldnt just rename files
