AW: [opencms-dev] Database-import and -export

Normally, this error is an indication that the export path is not found by
the OpenCms.
Did you set the export path with the writeExportPath "pathname" command in
the CmsShell?

> My export-path ist "/opt/opencms_40.30/export/". Perhaps 

In your case, you should set the Exportpath like this:
- Start the CmsShell
- Login as Adminstrator
- use the command: writeExportPath "/opt/opencms_40.30/export/"
- exit the shell

Restart your Apache and the Export/Import should work in the Adminstration
view.

Also, take care that the OpenCms has the access rights to write into the
selected export folder.

Bye,
	Michael
