I meant is all of this stuff in its own directory called shorewall?

For example, one of my modules untars like this:

squidreports/
squidreports/config.info
squidreports/config
squidreports/images/
squidreports/images/icon.gif
squidreports/lang/
squidreports/lang/en
squidreports/config-redhat-linux
squidreports/reports-lib.pl
squidreports/index.cgi
squidreports/module.info
squidreports/reportview.cgi
squidreports/calamaris.cron
squidreports/help/
squidreports/help/reports.html

Notice everything goes under the squidreports subdirectory when 
untarring.  Your problem looks like it might be due to everything being 
'loose', like so:

config.info
config
images/
images/icon.gif
lang/
lang/en
config-redhat-linux
reports-lib.pl
index.cgi
module.info
reportview.cgi
calamaris.cron
help/
help/reports.html

This won't work.

Again, I'm guessing, but that's what it looks like from here.
