    Please take a look at this KB article. It could be one of two issues, both of which are outlined on that page.

    I saw that I am running 6.1 and only have the root directory in there.

    Seems everything I am looking at I run into a wall here.

    Any other Ideas??

    Those items in the KB article are the only things we're aware of to cause this. You may want to submit a ticket to our support team to have them look into this a bit further!
