dataDir does not exist

[gislepa]

I do also get the "There is a problem with your dataDir setting. It does not appear to exist" message, but do not know how to handle it. I have created the directory .../dataDir/, and I have verified that the directory exist. In addition I have placed a index.html there, and i reach this page as I type the url in the browser.

Is there anyone who could give me a little help?
