EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Please attach a ZIP file containing your Akeeba Backup log file in order for us to help you with any backup or restoration issue. If the file is over 2Mb, please upload it on your server and post a link to it.

Description of my issue:
Joomla going crazy again, I think. They realised today 2.5.27 almost at the same time as 2.5.26. When I try to install in the usual way I get ERROR: invalid login.

I think I just need for you guys to update Akeeba, but let me know if it's something more than this. I haven't yet tried to update manually.

Thanks.

Hello Jenina,

as reported in the announcement page on Joomla.org, if you are updating from version 2.5.26 you have to manually install the update, you can use the built-in Joomla updater:

Because of the issue with the update component, users who are running 2.5.26 will be unable to update to 2.5.27 using Joomla's update component. These users will be required to update their Joomla! installation via the Extension Manager. Instructions for updating via the Extension Manager can be found on the Joomla! Documentation Wiki. Users who are running Joomla! 2.5.25 or earlier will be able to update using the update component. The Joomla! Documentation Wiki contains full instructions on how to update your site.
