I would suggest setting up a clean DNN site using the same version of DNN that you are using for the site in question. I would also suggest installing using nvQuicksite, to make sure that your environment is set to a known configuration.

Using that out of the box version of DNN, are you able to install modules?

It sounds like Michael T. was on to something with the manifest file. Please look at the file with .dnn extension on see which version of dnn the module was built on. If the version of dnn you are trying to install to is older than the version in the manifest it will not work. If this is the case - then you need to build against the older version and then install module after setting the correct version in the .dnn file.
