Importing the old 1.3 board into the new 1.3 board, I get this errors...

  • The data directory could not be found.
  • The internal data directory could not be found.
I'm sure that the path is correct (pwd check).
Code:
> pwd
/home/myforum/public_html/data

What's wrong? o_O
 
Navigate to admin.php?tools/phpinfo and search for DOCUMENT_ROOT to get the absolute path of your XenForo installation.

Oh :) Thanks, this is the result

Code:
_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]    /home/myforum/public_html

The path (/home/myforum/public_html/data) seems correct to me... o_O
 
You're importing data from an install in the root?

It could be a permission error as well. (If it can't be read, it's as if it doesn't exist.)
 
It may be down to the permissions of parent directories. If you don't have root, you won't be able to deal with it.

TBH, the easiest thing may be to simply copy the data over so they're all in the same home directory.
