XF 1.3 Cannot install or upgrade addons any more

[sweetpotato]

Hi all,
I just upgraded my site to XF 1.3 RC 1. After filtering some addons now I cannot install or upgrade any addon. When I try to install or upgrade addon it always says:
"Please enter a valid file name. The requested file could not be read."
Please help me to solve this.
Thanks,

What are the permissions for the library/ folders and files?

Just change permissions of library, install, data, external data, js to 777 but no help.

Are you running any automatic add on installer of some sort?

Just upgraded to 1.3 RC2 but face the same problem.
Any help please?

Are you uploading a file or pointing it at a file on the disk? That error indicates that either the file doesn't exist or it simply couldn't be read (permissions issue). If you're uploading a file, this may indicate some issue with PHP's configuration to handle file uploads. If you're pointing it at a file, this could indicate a typo or a permission issue with the file.

Thank you for your tip @Mike ,
Just check it again and when I point to file on disk, It works. But I cannot uploading a file. I have made no change to PHP configuration since this error had not happened.
Thanks,

Can you upload an avatar or an attachment?

 

[sweetpotato]

Yes, I can upload a file in a thread.

Fixed after removing log in as user addon.
Thanks,

I'm getting the same error..
"Please enter a valid file name. The requested file could not be read."
And this is what is showing in my server error log:

I'm tying to reinstall the calendar addon...it was the only one I had to upgrade to a newer version today.

I do NOT have the "log in as a user" addon installed so not sure why I am getting a similar error.
