Here is the error.:

Please read what the error says. "The use directory is not writeable." . There will be a directory called "use" under your phpform directory. You need to assign read+write permissions to it.

Musawir, I suspect this is why so many people have errors on install. You may want to note that even though the common WINZIP your archive it will screw up the files.
Mine works fine now that I used WINRAR to decompress it...

Ah! thats sad. What a stupid assumption by WinZip that just because the directory is empty it is safe to ignore it. I guess I should put some temp/garbage file in the use directory to make sure that it is created. Thanks for pointing that out.

DONT USE WinZIP to decompress the .tar.gz since you a "use" directory will not be created. No joke!
Download WINRAR http://www.rarlab.com/ and it will correctly decompress the files.

Why not just create the use folder on the server???
