Symptoms
You may see an error like the following when transfering accounts, where "/mnt/dir/username" is the account's home directory on the source server.
“/mnt/dir/username” is not a valid path for a home directory symbolic link in this restore type.
Description
This can occur if the source server uses a non-standard home directory. This is because the transfer process tries to create a symlink from the old home directory to the new home directory to ensure that any hard coded paths used by the account still work. This will be skipped if the old home directory does not fit the criteria for home directories on the new server as set in "Basic Webhost Manager Setup".

Workaround
There is no work around for this. That said, this warning can be ignored if the account is not using any hard coded paths to it's old home directory.
