I've begun trying to migrate a new site from a testbed directory (www.mysite.com/testbed, residing in a typical Drupal multisite install: sites/mysite.com.testbed/). I've imported the database and moved all my custom Adaptivetheme subtheme files. The subtheme contains a custom theme.css file and an /images directory.

Naturally things don't proceed smoothly, they never do. So I browse to admin/build/themes/settings/mycustomtheme. I am getting at the top of that page the following message:

The directory sites/mysite.com.testbed/files does not exist.

When I try to re-upload a fresh new logo, this fails and I also get:

The directory sites/mysite.com.testbed/files does not exist.
The settings have not been saved because of the errors.

I've scoured my template files and database and simply cannot find any reference to the directory "sites/mysite.com.testbed/files". So I'm not sure why I can't upload, and why the whole site is wrecked. Pretty weird.

What would be triggering that error message? Is there a table I should be paying special attention to?

Thanks! We love working with Adaptivetheme but this issue has us scratching our heads.

When you go to admin/settings/file-system what the File System Path set there? Even if its right click save, then check the file_directory_path in the variables table.

Yeah...I found this myself VERY shortly after I posted it. And then felt too stupid to reply with a thank you. :-/

So, thank you! Sorry for the dumb question. Great theme, we use it lots here.

Glad I could (sort of) help, not so dumb man, just one of those "gotchas" of migration.
