XF 2.2 Trying to import on Nginx 1.21.4

[leemartin]

I'm running Centos 8.4 with Nginx 1.21.4 and my root for site would be:

/www/wwwroot/site/

Importing from PHPBB 3.3 to Xenforo 2.2 and getting the:

The directory '/www/wwwroot/windeploy.org/forum/images/avatars/uploads' could not be found or is not readable.

I have checked permissions on the folders and it should work, so I'm thinking the path must be wrong

Anyone have any ideas for a Nginx paths?

Navigate to /admin.php?tools/phpinfo and search for DOCUMENT_ROOT to get the absolute path of your XF installation.

From there you can determine the absolute path for your phpBB installation.

Entering the absolute path should work.

Thanks, that confirmed that I have the correct path, yet its unreadable, so I'm going to
do the import on my test site that is running apache

Try recursively chowning/chmodding the directory.

Okay thanks I tried that also, so then I imported the phpbb3 to mybb to Xenforo and then import worked perfectly.
