Mod not install? - Freezes at Importing Product, Please Wait...

[Toupsx]

Hello, I had been using the product Forum Tournaments & Ladders for sometime upgrading it as it went along with some nice updates and addons. It worked great for me until version 2.5.7/2.5.8 (now on 2.7.3). The issue is after 2.5.7/8 every time I've tried to install the product whether it be completely newly installing it or overwriting a previous version it sits there at
Importing Product, Please Wait...

and says Done on the page.

Now if I look through my admin cp it installed some parts of the mod but not even close to all of it, none of the permission options are there, the options in vbulletin options isn't there, etc.

My question is why would this product just freeze and not install?
The only difference I found from 2.5.7/2.5.8 and higher versions is the way that the product xml was formatted.. it was made in a completely different way then previous versions after 2.5.7/8 but I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

I've asked for the author's help on it but he cannot provide it with this issue so if anyone else could that would be great.
