I am using the LAMP stack, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS version.

I installed wordpressWordPress and am trying to install a theme which I have in a .zip.zip file

When I try to install the uploaded theme ( wherewhere WP clearly says I can upload a .zip.zip file if I have it), I keep getting the following error

"Are you sure you want to do this?

Please try again."

If I try again, the same story repeats.

Is there any way to overcome this issue. I have to be able to install this particular theme on //localhost//localhost.
