File Sharing: Internal Error

Lloyd_mcse

Since the update to #30 two separate installs on Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS I'm getting the below error

Internal error: The directory does not exist "admin"

A quick Google brings up this kb...

http://kb.odin.com/en/121263

Which refers to the same error but in this case both dav and dav_fs are installed and loaded.
And besides it's for 11.5 not Plesk 12.0.18 #30.

I also saw this thread

http://talk.plesk.com/threads/file-sharing-error.257678/

Igors suggestion (post 5), this file already exists.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance for your help
Kind regards

Hi Lloyd_mcse,

could you provide the reply after the command "/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/file-sharing --sync" ?
 
Hi UFHH01,

No output at all...

# /opt/psa/admin/sbin/file-sharing --sync
#

And that was it.
Going back into Plesk, I still get the same error.
Thanks for the help
Kind regards

So the admin folder is actually...

From /opt/psa/admin/conf/file_sharing.conf
Code:
Alias "/files/private/admin" "/var/www/vhosts/fs/private/pOxbJ1o8IBCyZZCP8FV4JjMsvjnbgDFt"

The file names didn't match so I renamed it, still says it doesn't exist in the Plesk panel.

Any more thoughts?
Thanks once again
Kind regards

Lloyd
 
I have been meaning to say I found the issue, once I moved file sharing to a subdomain with only "Smart static files processing" ticked everything was fine.
