My admin control panel doesn't work since porting over my forum to another web service provider

[Elliot Marx]

I tried to port over my forum and finally got it working but the "admin" folder is broken.

I get this error message when I go to the admin folder:

An error occurred (500 Error)

We're sorry, but a temporary technical error has occurred which means we cannot display this site right now.

CANNOT_MAKE_DIR

You can try again by clicking the button below, or try again later.

Try again

Any thoughts of how to fix this?

That errors means the code can't create the folder. Check the owner and CHMOD of your folders, especially the /uploads one.

Jim M - please see the below topic. CHMOD is fine. My aggravations are far from over. High five only once this nightmare is fixed.

Please ensure that your permissions and folders/files are owned by the correct user/group for your new environment. If you continue to have issues, please contact your hosting provider to verify what is set. Often during a move, things can get changed and moving to a new environment, things can be different. IE if your new host is running suPHP or suexec, folders would need to be 755 and files 644 to be executed/writable.

If you want to provide us access via the Client Area we can take a quick peek if you’d like. 
 

The high five is for thanking Terabyte, as that is the correct answer for the error shown 🙂.
