I updated concreteCMS 9.3.1. and now I can’t download new add-ons and themes in the Add Functionality page. When I click the download button in the waiting list, the error below occurs.

Whoops \ Exception \ ErrorException (E\_WARNING)  
rename(): The first argument to copy() function cannot be a directory

I’ve also got the same issue after upgrading from 9.2.9 to 9.3.1.

I noticed that 9.3.1 was available for download, but it wasn’t being pushed via the auto updater in the admin area of the site.

I went a head and downloaded the new update, unzipped it, moved it into the updates directory and then performed the update via the admin interface in concrete.

Seemed to go smoothly except that attempting to install addons from the new marketplace result in the problem outlined in this thread.

I did figure this out. The basic introduction video by Concrete skips over entirely the need to link your site to the repository. If your getting an error msg when you try to access the Marketplace go to “System & Settings” then click “Marketplace” under the “Basics” Column.
