There is not solution for this issue? I have the same problem. I'm installing Prestashop in local with xampp in Windows XP without problems. Then add language and import a language pack and "archive cannot be extracted". The archive is the .gzip archive as i download, without unzipped.

Anybody can help us?

Thanks in advacne.

Hi
1- Check permissions
Set permissions of all files and folders in this folders "/img, /mails, /modules, /themes/prestashop/lang, /translations" to 777
and set permissions of this folder "/upload" to 777

2- Check GZIP enabled in your host
3- Check GD enabled in your host
