flexslider is failing on version recognition and perms Updated via drush, flexslider module v.7.x-2.0-alpha3 is installed.
Installed latest version of library 2.3.0, released 17 days ago as of the time of this writing.
Getting drupal pesky error about version not recognized, so decided to downgrade library to 2.2.2, same error.
Moreover I am getting following errors in status report:  

Warning: fopen(sites/all/libraries/flexslider/jquery.flexslider-min.js): failed to open stream: Permission denied in _flexslider_requirements_library_installed() (line 212 of /var/www/asflorida.com/sites/all/modules/flexslider/flexslider.install).
Warning: fread() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in _flexslider_requirements_library_installed() (line 213 of /var/www/asflorida.com/sites/all/modules/flexslider/flexslider.install).  


Before somebody tells me that this is a perm issue: I checked thoroughly and perms are 775 throughout and ownership is correct.
Either alpha 3 is not working with older library or viceversa.
Thanks in advance.
Basically this is a duplicate issue, workaround (cannot be called solution) is to downgrade from v.2.3.0 to 2.2.2.
I already posted in the module's issue queue.
The other issues were caused by ownership and perms issues, while I was testing both library versions, disregard that part.
