Also I created a addon.xml file in this newly created folder:
/var/www/cscart/app/addons/my_addon_font_awesome
<?xml version="1.0"?>
my_addon_font_awesome

When I try to install the add-on (click on Install in "Manage Add-Ons") the message "add-on has been installed successfully" occurs. But: button "Install" remains (switches not to "active" as expected).
Does someone know why? I checked folder permissions. What else can I do?
Name can be changed if you uninstall and install the module again
Did not work for me, sorry. I uninstalled the add-on, deleted all files in cscart/var/cache folder and installed it again - unfortunalely with no effect.
Or remove the entry from the 'addons' table.
Does that mean the entry will then be rewritten (based on the entries in add_on.xml)?
So far, I haven't dared to delete the entry, just edited it (in the cscart_addons table).

Can I actually delete it?
If you remove or rename it, the addon is effectively uninstalled. I made this suggestion ONLY because I though you deleted the files BEFORE uninstalling the addon. Hence there's no way to find the data to uninstall.
