Well, now we need to find out what makes JoomSuiteDefender to break our file..

I don't have that extension installed and got the file truncated anyways
The issue may lie elsewhere.

Here's my environment:
Joomla 1.5.11
Community Builder 1.2.1
JUGA 1.52
PROMA 2.1

Server:
PHP 5.2.4
MySQL 5.0,51
nginx 0.6.x

If you have gzip enabled, disable it and then re-install kunena... although, I doubt it. Gzip can affect some components during install, except I don't exactly know how. I had a problem in the past with another component that would not install correctly until I disabled gzip.

Anyhow I am just throwing out an idea. I got my issue resolved and halfway done with my new template!

Nope, no Gzip turned on.
Just hope all other kunena files are intact after installation.

In case it matters, the box i have detected this malfunction on looks like this:

Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-xen x86_64
MySQL: 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1
Collation: utf8_general_ci
PHP: 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.5
Web server: nginx/0.6.13
PHP Interface: cgi-fcgi

Same issue here, had to manually upload toolbar.kunena.php.

Running Joomla 1.5.11, PHP 5.1.6, Database 5.0.45.

This is looking more and more Joomla 1.5 unzip bug. When I was troubleshooting one Kunena installation I noticed that there's a workaround for this bug: just try to install Kunena in another format. If you used zip, try tar.gz next etc..

either way, this was the only issue I have found so far... Everything seems to be operating good.
