Try giving us a little more details on what the error message says. Otherwise it's hard to determine what exactly you're doing wrong.
We can start with the basics, do you have ClockWorkMod installed?
Yes clockworkmod is installed, the error message e: file signature failed
E:failed to verify
Installation aborted

Try installing the ROM without using ROM Manager. Boot into ClockworkMod Recovery, then manually choose the zip and flash.
This usually means that clockwork is not installed correctly and that you are not flashing the rom from within clockwork.

I installed it from rom manager and it said it installed right, hold down vol down power and camera to get into recovery mode correct? Then how do I manually choose the zip file?

I rooted my epic w one click and I did a factory restore did that take out my root privs ?

It definitely sounds as though you haven't properly installed ClockWork -- IT appears you are booting in to the stock recovery, which will not allow you to flash a rom.
Assuming your phone is rooted, you will want to goto this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782300
and download this method of installing clockwork. Follow the directions on the post, and you shouldn't have an issue getting clockwork to run.
I'm just curious....did you rename or move this from inside the phone? I know I moved a couple roms using astro and then tried and no go.....maybe it was just me tho...

Is there a particular reason why quickboot and rom manager won't boot to clockwork?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Well is your rom compatible with rom manager and did you flash the epic version in rom manager?

Go into the clockwork mod app and click flash clockwork and choose epic but make sure that the rom zip is on the root of your sd card not a folder. Yeah the epic experiance rom never says anything about being compatible with clockwork tho.

To be able to use rom manger to reboot into recovery you need to have a boot kernel that works with rom manager. If you flashed recovery the only way to get to it is by the volume down camera buttonv power button combo. Using quick boot or adb reboot recovery will take you into stock recovery in the boot kernel if you do this you need to select the flash update.zip line in recovery to get into clockwork.

i tried this and it says not signed or something
it fails
update i got rom manager to work but quickboot still boots to stock recovery
OK I have a problem. I had a difficult time flashing to DI18, figured out it was the pc not installing all the drives. Got there, went to backed snack 1.6 without a problem. I try anything else and I get the same error no matter what I wipe or anything.. tried DJ29 and DK05 and a few of the custom roms based n those 2 and I end up with can't symlink system/bin/dumpcrash, error at line 6..
I flashed DI18 with odin, fresh, didn't install any apps or sync with google, and same thing when I clockwork.. rom manager won't boot into clockwork, only android.. Is it me? Am I doing something wrong? I read someone flashed DJ29 or a DK05 rom over baked snack and I can't seem to find a solution.
Any help is appreciated.. I can't find any topics or posts that offer help or guidance in what to do with errors..

I had that same sot of problem. Rooted the epic flashed clockwork and woudnt boot in to the proper recovery. So here is what I did: with any file manager go onto your sd card and delete the update zip from the sd root directory. Then go into rom manager and reflash clockwork. Then manually boot into recovery by holding down volume down, power, and camera button. This should get you into clockwork recovery.

OK I tried but rom manager wont boot into any recovery now. I still have to boot in manually.. Not a problem, but I tbought booting from RM would be better for installing the .zip. gonna change the battery and try flashing but I am more concerned with how to flash any DJ29 or DK05 rom cuz I haven't been able to no matter what.

Exactly. You HAVE to go to Clockwork from the 3 button boot. STOP using Rom manager.

If you are actually in Clockwork via the 3 button boot (green text) and you can't install a zip, any zip as that is an option to actually choose the zip no mater what the name. THEN you need to re-root the phone

and re-install Clockwork

Also, this is a general topic that should be in the General forum, not in the development section as you aren't developing anything in this thread.
Ok thanks, wasn't sure where it belonged.. I have installed baked snack 1.6 and I can keep doing it no matter what I do, I don't even need to wipe. But anything else won't install. Root is there, I use apps that need it and the only one that has given me problems is root manager about su and not etting permission even though it has permission, so I will removethe permissions and see what happens.
Thanks a lot for the help, it's highly appreciated.

Please post questions in General section.
do you have clockwrk mod recovery?
Download rom manager from the market and flash clockword mod recovery and then choose the "install zip from sdcard" option
Idk how update.zips work, but I never installed a rom using one lol
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Are you trying to use the stock recovery or do you have clockwork mod installed?
You won't be able to load roms from the stock recovery. It checks for a valid signature before it flashes.
I don't have a pc I did the clockwork from rom manager
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I had this problem too, when I rooted. Do a factory reset and retry the rooting. Once rooted, you wont have a problem with Clockwork Recovery.
You cant use rom manager to install clockwork. It doesn't work on the phones stock kernel.
My phone is rooted and set up correctly but I am unable to get into to the clockwork recovery at all. I have tried through either rom manager or stock recovery update.zip any ideas?

Delete the update.zip and clockworkmod folder from your SD card and uninstall Rom Manager. Do a factory reset and totally wipe your phone.
Using ODIN (PDA) flash this package to your phone. Remove battery, hold vol down key and plug in usb. Replace battery and start the flash using this file.

When the phone resets you may have to activate your phone again.
Go to App Market and re-download Rom Manager. Click Flash ClockworkMod Recovery .. Samsung Fascinate. After that click Reboot into Recovery and install from zip.
Is there any way to do it we without odin? My monitors broken so I have no computer access.

Well Rom Manager should work that way but unfortunately it doesn't. At least for me it doesn't. I have seen threads stating you can mount the update.zip and apply in stock recovery but it didn't work for me.
You have to flash it with odin first, then with rom manager. No need to factory reset our any of that... Just flash with odin first
how can i update my clockworkmod have tryed through CWM app which updates it but after reset it goes back to old one have tried wit unrevok wich froz on waiting for root and have tried wit terminal which never worked any othr way.
Download cwm Ingram file, then from your PC use fastboot.executive to flash, or else put image in root of SD and use terminal to flash it. Search the forum you will find both methods. Using rom manager to flash cwm is not permanent method. It just boots into recovery and use the 'update zip like ' file to temporary boot into another recovery. It just make use of cwm files in memory card to boot.
