XF 2.1 Importing XF2 - XF2 error with data folder

[steventmcevoy]

I am currently trying to import my old DB into my new website. Both are currently up to date on xenforo when i go to >>
Configure importer: XenForo 2.1Source database configuration
Fill in all of my creds and click continue I get the following message





I do not have the files anymore to my old forum. Is this what the problem is?

My first thought might be that the data folder might not have had the appropriate permissions needed during the import.

Check the permissions on that folder from the install guide.

In case anyone has the same issue, I had to add new folder for attachments in the data folder.
