Did you place this folder manually inside the data/-folder of Nextcloud (the webserver-user needs to have enough permissions)? Can you check your logfiles (Nextcloud, webserver) as well? ---

Yes i did every folder manually into the /data folder because my server was down and i had a backup of my data. But every folder has the same permissions. ---

> [@flavio99](#): > > But every folder has the same permissions. Can you double check this (ls -lsia /path/to/data-folder/username/files/nc-path)? This is the typical error if the file system permissions are not quite right. If there is a mismatch with the file index of your database, there should be some errors in your logfiles, you can also update the file index with occ command for this user). ---

The Folder is not in the path. The folder is away. How can show the error logs or update the file index? ---
