Problem :

I am very new to the php as well as the wordpress but because of some reason I had to work with the wordpress only. So just to begin that I refered the tutorial and created the wordpress theme of my own and after that I simply tried to upload the theme but I got the following error :

The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature

I tried searching for the error and I found that the usual cause of such an error is maximum available space issue. But as I am working on my localhost I don't think it is the case. After increasing my upload_max_filesize, post_max_size and memory_limit as well still I am facing the same error.Please note : Currently I am using Wordpress 3.5.2.

Solution :

This error is occurring because you are trying to upload the Other than ZIP Compressed version. Other format is currently not supported while uploading your plugin in your wordpress.

So you must unzip all your plugins and please make sure that you compress them with the ZIP format only and after doing that you can upload it and I can assure you that it will be working fine.
