That error is caused if there are missing files in 3rdparty, and is completely unrelated to setting the datadirectory. Did you change the ownCloud files in any way (update perhaps)?

[hendraw4n]

yes, we migrate to new server, it looks like the copy process is not perfect, after reinstall everything looks fine. thanks

I know I'm commenting on an old and dead issue but if anyone else finds this when googling for the error. My mistake was copying the owncloud directory with rsync and using --exclude "data" which excluded the directory 3rdparty\punic\punic\code\data

[FHefner]

Thanks @Bigpet , I made exactly the same fault and it just took me about 4 hours since I saw. :D Now I can finally access my Nextcloud-Webinterface once again.

[csasarak]

I did the exact same thing, simple solution if you lost those files is to re-download the zip file and execute:

unzip <nextcloud zip> -d <path to installation without the final 'nextcloud'> 

Answer 'N' at the prompts to only replace files which aren't there.
