Actually contact your host, it is a host issue. I googled the message and it is a host issue.

That seems to be the going solution, dont try to upload it again, just let your host know and they can fix the issue. If you google the message it seems alot of people on wordpress also had this issue and the solution was to contact their host.
If you want to read some of the messages from others just google

As long as your sure about the files and you got them from a reputable developer and you have scanned them yourself, i dont see why they would not be safe. So yes im sure if the files are safe then it is a host issue.

It probably has to do with the mod_security at the host level. And it prob is blocking your zip file extension.
You dont have to use the zip file, you can unpack the theme and plugin on your local pc and then use filezilla to upload it via ftp.
however if you want to wait for tiassa then thats fine :)

Ok do you have access to cPanel?
also when we are done with this test, do you want me to walk you through how to upload the theme and template manually?

If your host for some reason is not allowing you to upload files from admin panel, you can always upload them directly via FTP or cPanel as suggested by Dave.
1. Download theme's .zip files again
2. Open ow_themes directory via FTP or File Manager.
3. Upload your .zip file there .
4. Unpack the archive.
5. Go to Admin Panel >> Appearance >> Choose theme.
Your new theme should appear there.
If it won't, go to ow_includes/config.php file and enable DEV mode>> Refresh the "Choose theme" page again. This time the theme should be there. Disable DEV mode.

But the bottom line is that your server is restricting your from uploading files. It is better to resolve this in any case.
P.S. try uploading any theme developed by Oxwall Software, just to check whether this happens with all kind of files or particular theme only.

mahendra, as Dave already said this error may occur due to the mod_security function on your server. Or the reason could be in the blocked extensions on your server. Or may be the hosting provider should add your domain name in their white list.

Thanks Taissa,
what i was going to do with her to prove it to her is to have her go into cpanel and upload a zip file and when it blocked it then she would see that it was a host issue not a oxwall issue.
