Well, looks like none of those topics help. Can Anyone tell me how to fully install this and get it fully up and running so I can work on my Portal.

There are 3 parts to the install
1) edit existing SMF files
2) copy SimplePortal files into place
3) Put data on the database.
 
One of these steps is failing. Probably 1) or 2) is failing because of permission problems.
But the Package Manager has not noticed the problem.
 
Please look in index.php for "sp_action", just to see if that edit succeeded.
Then, please look in Sources for a file called PortalBlocks.php and tell me if it is there.

None of those files are there.

However, this problem isn't just with this mod. It has also happened with Global Headers and Footers and TinyPortal when I tried to install TinyPortal [TinyPortal has a problem and is still in Release Candidate mode, so I decided to go with SimplePortal].

You are having a permission problem that is preventing the Package Manager from installing mods.
This is not a SimplePortal problem, per se.
The Package Manager checked to see that the directory is writable, so it assumes that when it issues the command to copy the files into the directory, it is going to work.
But then it does not work, and Package Manager doesn't know that it didn't work, so it thinks the install was successful.
 
Many other SMF users have reported problems like this.
Usually, they have needed to sort something out with their host.
 
Either the host used suPHP (so the php "user" is the website owner), but the files don't belong to the correct user, or something else is set up improperly.
 
You will most likely have to talk to your host. You may get valuable information on package installation failure by searching at the simplemachines.org site.

Is there any more help. How can I fix it, and if I don't fix it, does that mean my website won't have a SimplePortal?

I think you need to discuss this problem with your host.  Something is not set up right for you.

Another user just solved a similar problem this way:
The problem was that I had old themes that no longer existed. Once I deleted them, it installed fine.

Also an .htaccess file could cause problems. I had an .htaccess file in my webroot. Eventhough SMF was in a subdirectory of my webroot, the top level .htaccess was affecting the install.

Let's take this one step at a time, then.

What chmod settings are you using currently?
