I created my app - just got as far as giving it a name - and go to the control panel home page, it gives me a warning box with this message: "The application's data directory on the file system does not exist? This application does not have a data directory on the file system?" This also comes up on the file manager page and doesn't let me upload any files. Is this just a permissions issue and/or am I supposed to create a folder somewhere? Double-checked the quick start guide for server install and didn't see anything related to that. Any ideas? I'm new at this, so I'm sure it's some kind of obvious user error. Thanks in advance!

So if you haven't found the solution yet here is what you have to do. 1. Make sure you download an up-to-date server to your desktop: https://www.buzztouch.com/account/btserver.php 2. Delete the "files" folder from the folder you just downloaded NOT the one on the server 3. Drag folders back into your server. Refresh... Everything should work.. Hope this helps!
